Keep kids busy this summer

There are so many things you can do during summer. Since kids are bound to stay home teach them a lot of new activities to while away the time. For older kids, you can teach them how to cook simple dishes or make them your little helper in the kitchen. In the afternoon, before the little ones take a nap, let them listen to audio books using their headphones. This will surely entertain them and enhances their listening comprehension. The big ones will definitely enjoy reading a good book or two.

How Kids Can Make the Most of Their Time This Vacation

Summer break is here and a lot of kids are excited because they do not have to wake up early for school for two whole months. There are some kids who would just like to lie around inside the house and watch television or play with their tablets but this will not help their minds work. The best thing that can be done is to still undergo summer classes that are considered fruitful. If your child is interested in cooking, sign him or her up for cooking class. Not only will he learn more about the basics of cooking, he would also be able to use that skill in the future. Make sure that your kid still reads books from time to time so that he will still let his imagination run. Having imagination is always a good thing and it will make summer vacation fruitful.

Solving puzzle

I miss playing puzzles with the kids. I miss the fun and laughter that filled the room when they put the pieces together in such a short time. We have enjoyed the smallest (about the size of a 3R picture or smaller) to the biggest puzzle (one-half  meter) we have at home.

We’ve tried to solve the difficult to the easiest (with picture patterns) puzzle. But the kids have outgrown playing with puzzles and shift their interests to other things. The puzzle pieces went missing and  the kids just forget about them. 🙁

Oh, I miss the sheer fun I get from playing simple games, including puzzle with my kids.

Playing puzzle boosts the creativity of kids and serves as brain work out to adults.
