[quote=Anonymous]OK..here goes. 
When in 2nd grade...Child A read on average four hours a day and had done such since a very young age. Is in AAP, extremely bright. 
When in 2nd grade..Child B played on the ipod touch, read (30 minutes a day, at most), rode bike all day long, watched Disney XD, and went to pool. In AAP. 
Child C plays with Barbie's all day long, reads 30 minutes, scooters around the block, goes to pool, and watches Good Luck Charlie on demand all day. Accepted into AAP.

I also take them on outings around town (not just the mall!) on a weekly basis - maybe 1x a week we do 1 fun activity like: Udvar, Luray Caverns, Zoo, Regional Parks, Museums, Port Discovery, Williamsburg, bowling, mini golf. etc.

When younger we used to head to Frying Pan Park, Hidden Oaks Nature Center, Lake Anne (for free shows), and the regional parks on a weekly basis. As they have gotten older, we do less, but more educational stuff see above.

It doesn't matter what you do with you kids or if they are in aap or gen ed. Just have fun over the summer and let them make some of the decisions. let them enjoy the summer days of tom sawyer![/quote]
