It's Summer!!!!

It's summer and time to decompress!  Schedules get easier, the days get longer and it's time for some fun in the sun.  Kids need down time, too, so allow them to relax some of the time and enjoy their summer.  But, that doesn't mean plopping them in front of the tv, ipad or phone all day, every day.  Go to the pool, amusement park or playground.  Take them to visit friends and have some friends over to play.  Get your kids outside for some fresh air and exercise.  Remember, though, to have them read, or read to them.  Have special time in your day to enrich their minds so they are ready to go back to school on track.  It is a known fact that kids can loose knowledge over the summer if not properly stimulated.  So, allow your kids to enjoy their time off, but have them do some school work too so they are not behind in the fall.  Happy summer, and be safe!
