The beach, tanning, ice cream, swimming, and no school are definitely staples of summer. It is such a fun and long-awaited season. Summer 100% wins for being the best season because of the fun and the freedom.
Fall

Fall’s weather is always changing. One minute it is cool out, the next raining, and then it is hot and sunny. Its weather is quite unpredictable because of the change from the warm summer to the cold winter. During fall, it is hard to pick out outfits because it can be freezing in the morning, super hot out in the afternoon, and then in the evening it is muggy and rainy. Fall’s weather is too unpredictable and is not that amazing. This is also the end of Daylight Saving’s time which can cause sleep problems. According to Vibrance Health, “Without good sleep you can experience an overload of stress, mood changes, weight gain, heart disease and more.” During the fall, school starts which is definitely stressful and not getting good sleep can increase that stress. While school is stressful there is also Halloween which is a super fun part of fall because of trick or treating and dressing up in costumes. Thanksgiving is also enjoyable because of the food, football, and family. While these holidays are great, fall’s not the greatest: changing weather, beginning school, and stress makes fall not the best season.

Winter
Winter is way too cold to be the best season. While Christmas is a very fun and exciting part of winter, the freezing cold is not. During the winter, lots of people get sick because you are inside more trying to get away from the harsh cold. Englewood Health explains, “During the colder months, we spend more time indoors and in closer contact with others, which makes it easier for viruses to spread.” When you want to go enjoy a nice walk outside it is too cold, forcing you back inside. January is also the beginning of the third quarter, which is a long and boring quarter of school with hardly any days off. Finally, after the very long stretch you reach Spring Break.
Spring
Spring is a nice season except for a few factors. For one, in schools, there are a lot of FAST tests and writing tests. This means not only having work piling up, you also have to get prepared for these big long tests that will determine what types of classes you’ll be in the next year. Final exams and final projects for classes are very stressful and tiring. Balanced Washington says, “For students, however, it is the season of increasingly challenging work, final exams, and difficult ‘next year’ life choices.” The weather outside is nice, but sometimes the spring can have some cold fronts. One day you might get excited to wear shorts and a t-shirt but you get hit with a cold wind. This can be a huge disappointment while you are waiting for the summer’s heat to come again.
Summer
When summer finally comes, it is a huge relief. Finally, after a hard year of school or work you get to relax. First, vacationing is a lot of fun and a good way to relieve stress. During the summer there is lots of free time so you could vacation to different states or even countries! Exploring different parts of the world could help you feel relaxed. If you are not able to vacation this summer you could go to the beach. Laying out in the sun and swimming all day is a great way to spend your summer. If you can’t go to the beach or are not a fan of the ocean you could always go to your own pool or neighborhood pool. Getting out in nature is also something you could do during the summer. You could go hiking, biking, or even just take a walk around your neighborhood. The weather during the summer is amazing because it is warm and sunny outside but also has some thunderstorms. If it is raining you can stay inside and have a movie day and get popcorn and candy and invite over your friends. You can even pull out a slip and slide and use the rain as a natural hose, it could be hours of fun! If you are not a fan of these options you can read, draw, or play board games. During the summer if you and your family are bored, taking a road trip could be fun! Before the road trip, you can find places to make pit stops. Nature preserves are great places to stop and explore. You can also stop at beaches, shops, and towns. During a road trip you can find new places to eat and stay at hotels or find a place to park and sleep there for the night. Hanging out with friends is also a lot of fun during the summer. You can have sleepovers, go to trampoline parks, water parks, go in the pool, go snorkeling, tanning, biking, and so many more things! There are so many things to do during the summer especially with the perfect weather it provides.
There are so many more activities and places to go during the summer unlike other seasons. The weather is sunny which makes it so easy to do so many activities or it is storming which is super relaxing. Hanging out with friends and family is so much fun and the summer is so stress free. Summer takes the gold for the best season.
