Before you know it, your child will be starting a new grade. Summer vacation is nearly over. There have been weeks and weeks of bike riding, video game playing, trampoline jumping and whatever else kids do these days. Maybe some kids attended some sort of summer school, maybe some kids had a summer homework program in place but, if any kids were like me growing up, they probably didn't think about school, played in the dirt, scuffed up their knees, stayed up later and caught a frog or three.
So, now what? How are you planning on whipping the kids back into school shape? Early bed times? Have them read a book? Freshen up on some math problems? What do you do to get them back into academic shape?
(And, as always, dads are welcome to join in the conversation.)
