Yes indeed, the Summer Holidays have officially begun.
Do you remember when you had that last half-day at school? The teachers are busy tidying things up and the classroom looks bare with all the posters and paintings taken down and sent home. Instead of lessons, there's a video to watch or you just idle about chatting with the handful of other pupils who've bothered to show up.
We're fast approaching my most dreaded time of the year - the summer holidays. The kids are off for a full two months, the weather's been oddly changeable lately. How are we going to keep them from driving us bonkers over the summer holidays?
Yes, consider that an open question, everybody. How can we keep the kids amused over the summer holidays?
Especially for the Work At Home mums and dads among us who need to get some work done to keep the money rolling in! How do we achieve that balance between getting our jobs done, and keeping our kids happy?
