Turning my calendar to July has made me realize that while summer vacation is in full swing, the new school year is approaching more quickly than I realize.

Another trick I like to use is to leave notes for my daughter to read. I try and make them fun and upbeat. We have also played treasure hunt, with written clues. The key to reading success, I think, is to make it fun.
