Now that summer vacation has officially begun, my new title should be “entertainment director” for the next ten weeks.  Trust me, I have the kids signed up for camps and swimming but the days are long and my children seem to have an endless supply of energy!  So, when we’re home whether it’s in between activities or at the end of the day, I prefer to keep them off the electronics and encourage them to tap into their creativity and imagination as much as possible.  Here are a few ideas I have up my sleeve for the next couple of months aside from our daily jaunts to the beach and pool.  After all, it’s sooo nice just to lay low and embrace the slow pace of summer, isn’t it?
