Plan Out Adventures and Down Time 

It’s summer, time for adventures and FUN. 

Sit down with your family and plan out your cool summer adventures. Create a Summer Bucket List, decide what everyone wants to do, and get everything onto a calendar. You can plan a picnic, a bike ride or even a pool day together. 

But don’t forget to plan out downtime. Everyone needs some space in their days to relax and be bored. 

You need some quiet time without kids calling your name every second, and your kids need time to be bored to learn independence to and to get their creative juices flowing. 

Libraries have tons of books on the shelves waiting for someone to grab one and read, don’t miss the chance of helping your kids grow their minds. Take them to the nearest library to your neighborhood, buy them some books they choose and most importantly, dedicate 2 hours a day for them to read without any distractions, whether at home or in a public garden. You can always search for the nearest library to your home, and you’ll find Alef, Diwan, El Shorouk with tons of books in all genres, and you can leave your kids there in the reading area.

Those are all fun and mindful activities that’ll make them learn without being bored and you can save your own time making them explore themselves.
