Today I sat down and made a schedule of sorts for our
summer. I want to keep Alivia busy and engaged.
I am also watching a 7 year little boy this summer that I would like to keep
happy and busy. I have a confession… I have
no idea what little boys like. The only thing
I know about little boys is that they are supposedly made of “snips and snails
and puppy dog tails”. Though this
schedule is for the kids it very much for me also. I work better with a plan. I am more likely to accomplish things and less
likely to be stressed out. Our weekly
schedule is going to look a little something like this:
Monday: Story Time
Tuesday: Create Something
Wednesday: Pool Day
Thursday: Field Trip
Friday: Cleaning Day
I am big fan of free
things!! I am working on a really tight
budget this summer because I am not working “full time”. (our family budget plan and organizing coming
soon) So most of what we are planning
are free or for a much reduced price.
The pool is free (thanks to some awesome friends), our field trips are
free (yeah for zoo passes!!) or under $5.00 a person, we have the local library
that already has an awesome (free) story time and book reading program for us
to take advantage of, and the crafty day will be since experiments and art
projects we can do at home with things we already have at home!!! I will share
with you some of our science experiments and crafts throughout the summer and
any of the fun free things I find to do around the area.
