Weeks, that is...until summer vacation is over at my house. I have started to be "that mom". We are doing little bits of review each day before we go back to school. Mostly we play games in which my kids have no idea that they are reviewing "school type" material. For my youngest we do a lot of counting and some basic math. For my oldest, she counts up the coupons and tells me how much we will save before we get to the checkout. Then we see if she is correct. We also read...A LOT. I'm sure you are shocked about that one.
Don't get me wrong, the majority of our day is spent poolside. We are a tan bunch. But when the opportunity arises, or I see a "teachable moment", we incorporate some sort of "lesson" each day.
The summer has flown by; we have been super busy. I can't believe that the girls will be in school in a few weeks.
Hope you are having a nice summer and that you find some "teachable moments" that are fun!
