It's time for Litha!
School is out! Our plans for the year are either in full swing or coming up soon! This time of year can be hectic and frustrating, and so much fun!
This would be a good time for kids and families to make some time to breathe. Camp and vacation is great, but are you stopping to enjoy everything along the way?
Don't be afraid to let things go, to say "no" to an activity, to just have a movie night instead of cramming another day-trip or public event in. And don't forget to check in with the rest of the family. Are they enjoying what's going on, or are they stressed from rushing around? Maybe they want more, maybe less.
Remember that the growth of your kids requires some down-time, even at this time of year.
There are some great activities you can do just for Litha. I'm pretty big on developing life skills, so I tend to focus on things that will help kids learn to take care of themselves later on.
