Summer is one of the best seasons to spend time outdoors and enjoy the summer heat. One way to enjoy to beat the heat this summer is to hang around, try all the ice cream shops, and flavor that they offer. 

This is one activity that you and your kids can actually bond with. This is something that you guys can make into a fun activity like creating a map of all the ice cream shop there is and check them off your list one by one every weekend. It's like an ice cream road trip! Don't forget to capture every sweet moment with your kids. They grow up so fast and time is not enough to create memories while they are young. 

Here is our list of 5 Best Ice cream shops to  Best Ice Cream Shops to Beat the Summer Heat Around Indianapolis.

Address: 901 E 64th St, Indianapolis, IN 46220
Phone: 317-257-5757

BRICS is definitely on top my list. Upon entering the door, you can feel the warm and friendly atmosphere that this establishment emits. They are environment-friendly and pet-friendly ice cream shop. There are 24 flavors to choose from and you can also choose from their creations. I suggest the BRIC HOUSE from their creations. It got 3 scoops of ice cream, topped with chocolate chips, hot fudge, crushed oreo's, whip cream, and a cherry. Yum! Also, they give free ice cream to your pet, so no need to leave them in the car. 

2. Sundae's Homemade Ice Cream

Phone: 317-570-0533

One of Indy's and one of my favorite ice cream shop here in Indianapolis is Sundae's Homemade Ice Cream. Their award winning ice cream is made of only the best ingredients in the market. Not in the mood for ice cream? They also serve home roasted coffee in their store which you can also order by pound online. I recommend their Chocolate Raspberry Truffle, Pistachio Almond, and Chocolate Amaretto Cheesecake flavors.

Today marks the first official day of summer and I'm sure you already planned your summer vacation with your family with lots of water. Who wouldn't, right?! Summer is all about fun, relaxation, and a lot of family oriented activities. 

We are lucky that Indiana has tons of events and fun activities for kids and of course, events for adults to go to every week, or every month. I can definitely say that our summer won't be boring. However, if you do not have any summer plans yet, you can just plan a trip and cool off the summer heat in one of the Water Parks around Indiana

Since today is the Summer Solstice, I would like to share 5 Fun Facts about June Summer Solstice, 2016:
