Summer is summer for a variety of reasons.  It should be time for your children to find balance in their lives.  I know many families that continue school work through the summer and do a good job with it.  Personally, I feel as if the summer is more of a time for personal growth and experimentation for children.  It’s a time to allow them to develop their interests.  Read what they want to read, play what they want to play, create games and activities on their own as opposed to being directed.

Personally, I use the summer to work on christian homeschooling curriculum.  This is nice because things with my kids are slower and I am not always worrying about this or that lesson.  It’s time to do some real theoretical thinking on my curriculum and goals for the next year.
