[quote=Anonymous]DS will be entering 1st grade this fall. We've been reading every night - DS reads a book to us, we read to him. DS reads just about anything that he sees during the day - signs, menus, you name it - as well. We've also talked about the space probe that's flying by Pluto, weather and barometers, Legos, the bird's nest in our backyard, and other random items of interest. He's at camp during the day, pool in the evening and weekends. So no "studying." I'm a big fan of summer reading programs, but otherwise am not convinced that "brain drain" occurs in the mostly upper-middle-class demographic that inhabits this forum. As a kid I loved my reading/camp summers that involved NO "studying", and did end up at Yale (though UVA would have been a great alternative, PP). [/quote]
