SUMMER SCHEDULE FOR KIDS

An easy theme for each day of the week will help your children explore all the possibilities!

I think we can all agree that keeping focus is not always an easy thing to do, but necessary for being productive in whatever we’re doing – adults and kids alike!

“I’m bored! There’s nothing to do! I don’t have any toys to play with!” You can bet I’m either finding a chore for my kids to do, or helping them gather their toys to give away. These statements are just not acceptable in our home with so much available.

Whether we take a day off of homeschool to reset because it’s been a tough day, or we just need to remember why we homeschool, using these types of “it-days” can change the homeschool routine and breathe from the daily routine.

A summer schedule for kids is just what we needed to explore ideas and change it up, too. My kids are so excited about this schedule, and they have determined that…SUMMER JUST CAN’T COME SOON ENOUGH!
