[quote=Anonymous]I remember those days. :) When kids were much younger, they spent the summers at their old home-based day care, which they liked. But that ended probably around K. Basically we took all our vacations in the summer (though I was at a new job and was still accruing vacation), did some small trips and visited family that happen to live near a beach. The rest of the time, cobbled together various day camps that had extended care. The hardest part was that the kids didn't want to do the same camp for too long, so every week or two we'd have a whole new schedule/drop-off location/lunch requirements, and I had to create a spreadsheet for all that. Now that kids are in middle school, one still does day camps, but generally is able to get there on bike, the other prefers to stay home. DH is now also mostly working from home and his job is relatively flexible, outside of some meetings (he needs to complete his tasks but is not really on the clock). [/quote]
