Summer Reading Fun: Build Reading into Summer Routine!

Thursday July 3, 2008
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. I've also slipped on my goal of having my kids read every day, so I'm taking steps to remedy that by building reading into our remaining summer fun!

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.
