Summer Schedule

Ahhh, summer. Gotta love three kids with nothing to do and you with EVERYTHING to do. Last year I kept Olivia on schedule and we did lots of review work to keep her mind fresh. The schedule was a little too rigid with the times noted on the chart and we had too much to do in one day so it didn't really help Olivia to know what to expect. She really needs to know what to expect. SO this year, I chose one subject per day and then listed all the regular activities we usually do in a day to help guide the kids in their activities. I printed the list with clip art out on blank business cards and put them on magnetic sheets to create our changeable summer calendar on the fridge which can be seen from pretty much everywhere in the house. =). It's great. We refer to it often and Olivia sets it up for the next day before she goes to bed. I've only been told "I'm bored" once or twice so far. Success!
