Summer Blog Prompts

Summer is here, and half the year has already flown right past us - can you believe it? We wanted to put together some of our favorite prompts for the summer to make sure that you manifest the best summer possible. Putting pen to paper can really make those goals and dreams come true. So grab your favorite journal, a blanket to sit on and a spot in the sun while you reflect with these prompts.

4. Pool, Lake or Beach - what would you choose? Why?
5. What was the best summer reading book you were ever assigned in school?
6. What is your favorite summertime food and drink? If you could only drink one drink and eat one food all summer what would it be?

Our team member Marissa took the time to answer one of the prompts, using our Textured Dusk Paper Journal to talk about her favorite Philadelphia summer activities. She’s more of a Spring/Fall person but loves Clark Park’s Saturday farmer’s market, the Ritz movie theaters in Old City when it gets too hot, and the bakery Vegan Treats in Bethlehem, PA for the absolute best vegan soft serve.

What are your city’s best summer activities? We’d love to hear your answers to our summer prompts, as well as your suggestions for great prompts we should include in future posts. Comment below!
