While participating in our link parties, I came across this awesome blog: Scattered Thoughts of a Crafty Mom. Such a cute blog, but even cuter post about Summer Activity Jars.
We've been having a lot of discussions about summer in my classroom over the past two days. When I saw this photo, I thought of my students right away. I know some of them would love having this routine incorporated into their summer days, especially when sometimes "every day looks the same." I love the idea of sticking to routines and not getting sucked into the lazy days of summer. These jars are a cute way to switch things up and accomplish things at the same time! Click here for directions on how to make these.
I was also admiring Scattered Thoughts of a Crafty Mom's summer schedule for her kids. I'm a schedule/routine kind of girl - it's probably the teacher in me. But, I also know how important a schedule is to kids. I feel bad for some of my students because I know they suffer greatly without a routine or schedule. I love the variety that's incorporated into this schedule. So fun!
