do projects with your kids that allow them to continue to use all their skills for school. kids love to read i know my daughter does and going to the libary is a great past time.

Turn off the tv, video games. Exposure to the great outdoors. Whether it is traveling or just in the back yard. Kids need to reacquaint themselves with playing and exploring. Most importantly P-L-A-Y (a fleeting objective in our society.)

I agree with many of these replies. This summer I'm also going to teach my kids to type. This hunt and peck stuff is nuts!

Road Trips! Plan them with a theme in mind: animals, mountains, family history, etc. Kids learn geography, math (calculating change due from cash purchases, comparing gas prices, tracking daily expenses) plus the happy memories created. Make it fun!

leaning the joys of summer vacation after 10 months of learning testing and homework. let them go out and explore the world on there own (ie getting a job, giving them more responsibillities, ect...) take them on vacation. thats good too.

Earobics vs. Lindamood-Bell: Each has several programs. The focus & scope of the offerings in both is different. Questions on any one offering compared with any other can be answered. Otherwise, it's like comparing an SUV and ATV - meaningless.

I would love to know a great public elementary school for 4th grade and middle school for 6th grade. We will be moving to Atlanta and want to hear your opinion for both public and private with tuition under $13,000

We're going with a Spanish immersion camp in July since our daughter's preschool is gradually shifting to Spanish immersion this year. We've got other activities scheduled too. Just avoiding the old idle hands thing.

Absolutely nothing. Let the kids kick back for a while. They just got out of school, but camping is a great activity too.
