Summer Schedule

While our summer is still business as usual with work and daycare for both (Eli at Sacred Heart and Aliyah still at Barb's), they will be picked up around 3:30 and be home a bit earlier than when Eli gets off the bus from school. 

I came across the idea of a summer schedule on Pinterest and adapted it for us with a different theme for each day of the week.

Make Something Monday - Try out new recipes from a cookbook

Take a Trip Tuesday - Either locally or out of town (although out of town trips will be reserved for Sundays when we have more time) 

Wet and Wild Wednesday - Play with water toys outside or go to the swimming pool in DeWitt

Thinking Thursday - Continue reading mini phonics books/books from library and complete pages in workbooks

Family Fun Friday - Spend time together as a family enjoying a new or a favorite activity

Super Supper Saturday - Go out for supper together

Spread kindness Sunday - Perform a random act of kindness
