What to do in the summer?
All students are looking forward to the summer holidays -the longest vacations in the year, which last for three months. But sometimes it happens that the holidays are too long - at some point it turns out that there is nothing to do, and boredom overcomes. What to do in the summer?
Common the mistake of many parents is to assume that the child himself will find entertainment ("Here he is, rushes around the yard, he plays, does not hefun?"). And some simply send a child to a summer camp (sometimes not even one shift) or to a grandmother in the village-there they will surely take care of his leisure. It is only for the child that communication with parents is very important, and summer is the ideal time for communication about everything, not just about school performance. What to do for children in the summer with their parents?
Of course, in the summer parents can not give to the childall their time - they do not have a vacation, nobody canceled work. But you have warm and bright summer evenings, and also weekends. What to do with the child on vacation? Try to choose such entertainments that are inaccessible to the child with peers. Let's say you do not let a junior schoolboy with friends go to the river or into the forest, it's too dangerous, but you can not completely deprive him of such a pleasant pastime in nature.
therefore be sure to include in your plan for summer entertainment trips to the beach. By the way, do not necessarily go to the beach withchild on weekends: if you do not get too tired after work, you can go to the beach in the evening, at seven o'clock. At this time, the sun does not bake as much as during the day, so your child will not burn. And the water is still warm, warmed up all day.
To go with the child it is necessary only for the checked up beaches with a good input in water, the pure bottom without sharp differences of depth. Be sure to take with you to the beach headdress, baby tanning preparations, cool water (only not ice and not sweet soda). Make sure that the child is not too long in the water. By the way, summer is also a great time to teach a child to swim, if he does not yet know how.
A at the weekend you can go with the child to the forest: walks in the forest are not only useful for himhealth, but also very informative. Arrange a mini-excursion for the child, telling about plants and forest dwellers. It is not necessary to climb into the backwoods and thickets: the junior schoolchildren will have enough walks in the forest park. And with older children you can already go camping.
Of course, do not forget about physical activity. Ping-pong, badminton, bicycle, rollers ... Let the child choose what he likes most. Do not over-force the selectedyou sport: it is important that the child does not perceive the sport as some kind of "obligatory", but saw that useful things can also be fun and interesting.
In your free time, go out with the child to the sports grounds: it is better, if you do it, it will be under your supervision, so that in case of anything you can insure it. And at the dacha you can ask for a child help you look after the garden and the garden. Just do not overload it too much: let him water flowers, collect berries. This is the same principle as with sports: the child will understand that work can be fun too. In general, try to be as much as possible with a child in the fresh air.
But, as we have already said, no one canceled the work. What if you spend most of your time at work, and there is no way to send the child to the camp or to the grandmother, where he will be looked after? What to do for children in the summer in the city? We advise you to find out if there is a city in your city daytime children's camps - there the child will be all day under supervision, andin the evening he will return home. Such camps are not only at schools, but also at various centers of children's creativity, schools of foreign languages. Also find out about circles and sections - Some work even in the summer, and it is much easier to interest the child with a circle or section, when he does not need to think about school and lessons.
In fact, there are many options for what to do in the summer. The main thing is that parents take care of their child's leisure time, then his summer vacation will be interesting, informative and useful for health and physical development.
