Summer Fun

Has it hit you yet? That "oh-my-goodness-all-our-spring-activities-are-over-what-are-we-going-to-do-now" feeling? As I wrap end of the year teacher gifts and days of preschool turn into special activities and programs, I'm feeling it. I find that my idea of doing nothing lasts about 2 days and then I am desperate to get Ben enrolled in something---anything--- again.

Here are few ideas to get you started. Some are multiple weeks, some are a one time experience. If you have others, please post as a comment!

* Kindermusik Summer Camps: Our 5-week summer session begins June 13th. Click here for the details: http://www.injoymusic.com/adventures.html. Enroll soon to ensure you'll have home materials on the first day of class.

* Jiggle Jam: Think of it as Lollapalooza for kids. This family fun fest attracts some of the hottest acts in kids' music (and, Kindermusik will be there, too!) including They Might Be Giants, Dan Zannes, Funky Mama, and Mr. Stinky Feet (plus many more). We hope to see you May 23rd and 24th! http://www.kcjigglejam.com/.

* Kidtivities at The Learning Tree: What a great idea! Visit the Corinth location of everyone's favorite toy store, The Learning Tree, for a summer of fun activities. For only $10 a session, this is the best bargain for summer fun. Create a garden stone, dig for dinosaur bones, create mosaics, and more! Call the Corinth store for details: (913) 385-1234.

* Public Library Programs: Check out the local library for summer programs. Don't forget to sign up for a summer reading program (or a "read to me" program). It's a fun way to add a little learning in your summer routine. http://www.jocolibrary.org/ (Johnson County Libraries) / http://www.kclibrary.org/ (Kansas City Public Libraries).

What else are you doing this summer?
