[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I let my kids enjoy their summer.  [/quote]

Yup!  Here too.  They get exercise by jumping on the trampoline, lots of pool time, riding bikes.  All learning is "accidental".  Trips to the library to get books they WANT to read instead of what they HAVE to read.  They send me emails a few times a day while I'm at work---that works on typing and their writing skills.  They have chores to do around the house (making beds, folding laundry, emptying dishwasher, etc).  
I roll my eyes at "structure" in the summer.  [b]And why the hell is OP targeting SAHP'S[/b]?[/quote]

Because working parents have their kids in camp or have other supervision all summer for day care purposes.

She's not asking to structure their entire day or summer. Just some ideas to provide a basic framework. [/quote]

Um, not true.  DH and I both work.  We stagger our schedules so the kids aren't in daycare.[/quote]

Well, be thankful then that you are part of the blessed few who have flexible schedules and feel free to give ideas that are actually relevant to the post as to how you structure the time when the kids aren't in daycare.[/quote]
