Summer suggestions

With summer break just 4 weeks away, I keep hearing about neat day camps...I wanted to share some of them with you:
Mad Science Summer Camp--www.madscience.org/Cincinnati
Fun times for little scientists!

For space fans, there is the iSpace program. Check it out at ispacescience.org

The next time you are leaving the grocery store, pick up the May issue of Cincinnati Family--it has a huge list of summer offerings!

To keep your learners on track for first grade, make games for rainy days. How many letters can you read in a minute? Have them look through a magazine for kids and circle all of the words that they can read...Half Price Books is a great place to find inexpensive magazines for children. Write letters on index cards, mix them up, and make 3 or 4 letter words (real or make believe) and have your child sound them out.
