CLEAN SUMMER FUN TIPS FOR YOUR KIDS!

Submitted by admin on June 29, 2009 at 11:54 am One Comment

GUESTBLOGSummer is here and the schools are out. It is important for the kids to stay busy and active physically and mentally. We have all heard of the term use it or loose it! During those long summer months it is easy to loose it; the knowledge gained during the school year, if it is not reinforced throughout the summer.

So here are some cool tips to incorporate learning into summer break:

-Visit your local museum and discuss the exhibits with your child.

-Purchase your child a fun summer work book found at the nearest learning center

-Enroll your child in a sleep away summer camp and become your child’s pen pal.

-Enroll in a day camp and have your child do a current events newsletter each week that includes the camps weekly highlights.

-Spend a couple of hours at the local library or bookstore and encourage your child to read for a couple of hours.

-Purchase a couple of educational games for a Gameboy, PlayStation, or Wii, to be played during the summer months

-Tour your states capital or county seat for interesting historical lessons.

In addition to the ones above there are several other ways to incorporate learning into summer break. Which ever one you choose be sure to make it fun, it is of course Summer Break!!

    As a teacher, I appreciate all of the above recommendations. Halle Berry, baby Nahla and Halle’s partner seem to have exposed the baby to learning about Nature and her surroundings during their summer vacation.

    The baby’s smiles depicted in BCK pictures of them frolicking/playing on the beach reflect the positive stimulating effect of being outdoors.

    Thanks for reflecting celebrity parents not using expensive, material items to teach their child about not only her natural surroundings, but also how to be part of and loved by your family/parents.

    Kudos, BCK!
