Summer has begun and so have all the vacations.  Enjoy!  Remember that God is always with you wherever you go.  Take God with you for all your vacation experiences and enjoy His Word in your daily living. 

Take the time to continue writing in your daily journal.  You’ll love reading all about your “summer vacation days” later on in your life. 

Keep reading! Life is great when reading a good book!(including “The Good Book -the B-I-B-L-E )

Shopping is even more fun when you keep brushed up on your Math skills and facts.There are so many ways that you can use all the Math skills you have already learned in just everyday living! 

Have Fun! Learn all you can from all your summer experiences.  See you in church, in town, or playing outside. 

It’s true that some children, with parental guidance, are able to read and write at a very early age. But this doesn’t mean they are able to make proper evaluation of the things they do, because what they do, many times is just a conditioned response.

Only when a child has developed the capacity to think, to direct his/her natural curiosity to find answers to meaningful questions, has true learning for that child been accomplished.

Instead of being directed in all their activities, children learn a great deal as they play. They search for answers to their own questions and they find answers in their own make-believe games. Children come to a deeper understanding of themselves by pretending to be doctors, storekeepers and truck drivers.

When a child shares or takes turns with others, recognizes another’s frustrations, acts out her own anxieties and conflicts—-all in a world of make-believe—he/she is doing the plain, hard work of growing up through the natural process of childhood.

When we rush children into clever performance of skills, when we organize their daily lives to that there is not a moment for inner contemplation, we decrease the possibilities for genuine thoughT and individual growth.

Let’s let children be children for the few short years of childhood. Let’s let them accumulate precious memories that will serve them well in adult life. Most of us have happy recollections of our childhood days. When life hurts, when the way grows weary, or saddened by losses we so many times find solace in remembering something out of our yesterdays.

The truth of this is demonstrated by the hold that songs and poems we learned as children have upon us. These songs and poems appeal to us because their major note touches one of the deeper and elemental things in human nature: CHILDHOOD
