Summer is almost here and I am a little nervous about how it will go. We don’t have any big plans of traveling (other than possibly our 10 year anniversary). The boys do so well on routine, that I’m hoping to be able to have some structure over the next few months.
So here is our plan for the summer- starting May we are
going to have themed weeks for three months. Each week we have chosen a theme
to focus on for the week. On Mondays we will head for the library to pick up
books on the subject- and review it throughout the week. On Friday we will have
a ‘fun event’ related to the theme. I’m shoping this will give me some more
confidence about how summer will go and give us something to look forward to
every week.
Thought I would share here in case someone wants to join in
our weekly fun events!
5/4 Golf (Putt putt golf)
5/11 Dinosaurs (Dinosaur world)
5/18 Mad Scientist (MOSI- anyone have passes?)
5/25 Animals/Zoo (Zoo or Busch Gardens)
6/1 Star Wars (Not sure what to do yet)
6/8 Ocean life (Beach)
6/15 South America (Eating at a Peruvian restaurant that
week- yum!!)
6/22 Camping (Still deciding whether to camp in our backyard
or indoors)
6/29 America the Beautiful (Anna Maria 4th of
July parade!)
7/6 Baseball week (maybe a baseball game?)
7/13 Bug week (any ideas on a place we could visit related to
bugs?)
7/20 Pirate week (any ideas other than Memo’s pirate ship?)
7/27 Narnia week (Probably just watch the Narnia movies that
weekend)
There are still three more weeks of summer before school
starts again, but this is all my brain could come up with for now! We won’t be
sticklers about it, but I’m excited to have a little bit of goals to look
forward to each week.
