I already know that we will be going to ORANGE LEAF as soon as school gets out. The kids have never been there and I have been holding off taking them until there was a special reason. It will be a great way to kick off the summer!
Something new I decided to try was a Summer Fun $ Jar.
After selling some items at the garage sale last week, I thought I would put the money together and save it for something. This way, if we decide to go bowling or mini golf, we can take the money from the pot. I also am going to add $5 every time I get a $5 bill in my wallet. That will also help to grow the pot. I have also considered using it as a way for the kids do special chores and then money will get added to it.
The next part of summer planning I have yet to get figured out is the Kid’s Chores. I plan to work on that in the coming week. If I don’t incorporate chores into their routine right away, the days will melt into video games and TV watching. So, stay tuned for a post on Kid’s Summer Chores!
How many days of school do you have left? What are some of your summer plans?
