Just came back, I know its not the Summer but I can tell you from going from Southern Utah, into Northern AZ, then middle of AZ.... it was interesting to watch the temp changes with the kiddos.
In a day we saw below 30, above 80, around 70, then back in the 50s...
It was fun and interesting for the kids/
I would imagine in the Summer time it won't be as dramatic, but at the same time I would imagine early Summer you can likely get away with different variations of temps.
Plan accordingly and do the tougher hikes early and late, avoid the mid day stuff...
****Rec if not too hot. We stayed at Wander Camp about 15 min South of the Grand Canyon Entrance....It was a fun and neat experience. Was not bad at all, the beds were comfortable and you are going to see the most stars you've ever seen before.

Leaning towards a different destination.
I've wanted to visit AZ for a while. I've explored all around there. Done the Mighty 5 in Utah. All of the parks in Colorado including Mesa Verde which isn't too far as the crow flies. I just like escaping the LA heat in the summer, and having to time my hikes to avoid the heat sounds unfun. Maybe next year around Easter.
Might be back to Glacier again... I don't have to worry about the weather there, just being eaten by a bear.
