I usually start with more specific "themes" for them and then ask for specific ideas within those themes. I think if .i asked the kids a general question about what to do this summer we'd be roadtripping to Disney! Lol

Start with a piece of paper with a circle and write the theme inside, say "cooking" and then shoot ideas out from there (its called an idea web). Have several different themes like, science, animals, reading and writing etc. Then get the kids to brainstorm each topic for doable activities, lunch and snack ideas etc.
