My husband and I work from home – which is a blessing and a curse. The overhead is lower, we have a flexible schedule and we get to spend more time with each other and the kids.
Then there’s summer.
Last summer we had a fabulous plan…we had an entire schedule worked out for the summer where the kids would do one fun thing a day. Our Aspergers son thrives on a schedule and needs some routine. So, I’m working on organizing this summer.
Days will likely look like this:
8-9am – have breakfast, make bed, do chores
9-10am – reading and writing time
12pm – lunch
12:30-3 Do something out (see big calendar)
3-3:30 clean up
3:30-5 tv time
The big goal is to do something out every day – it might be go swimming, go to a museum, hang out at a park or any variety of activities. What are you favorite summer activities with your kids? Do you take the summer off?
