Summer time gives kids the best chance to get outside and play; using their imagination, creativity, and developing social skills. And just about the time we think we see dust collecting on the video game box, summer screeches to a halt and it’s back to school. Now the routine changes to “after school” and how time is occupied other than homework. Why not keep them … [Read more...]
