I love this post! Makes me feel so much less guilty about all the processed food and TV that gets consumed in my house.
Signed,
Mom of 2 kids in AAP

Lots of outdoor play time and pool time. Reading out loud while lying in the hammock, too.

They played outside in the yard with friends and neighbors. Then brought them all in and ate everything in the cupboards. On really hot afternoons we went to the library.

The only thing might indicates a joke is the lunch description. Otherwise, I think it sounds pretty typical.

It might be a joke for the person who posted it, but that was definitely my DS - video games, Phineas & Ferb and Legos all summer. Although he wakes up at 6 AM to start the WII and feeds himself breakfast - usually picks the sugar cereal!! Mom wakes up a couple of hours later. He enjoys the downtime of summer. Still the top kid in his class for math, reading, whatever... It must be genetics -- on his DAD's side!!!

Wake up early around 8:00-ish, help himself to sweet cereal or pop tarts.
Turn on the TV. 1-2 hours of Phineas and Ferb, Ben 10, Pokémon, etc until mom rolls out of bed.
Video games or DS, 1-2 hours
Lunch (processed Lunchables, Cheetos, Funyuns, and pre-sweetened juice or chocolate milk)
Run around outside, 1 hour +/- depending on mosquitos
Legos or more video games, usually until dinner time
Dinner
Swimming pool
TV
Bed
Sneak books until around midnight when I catch him with a flashlight under the covers reading
Sleep.


This is pretty much us as well.


Honest question: is this a joke?

My son did 4 weeks of camps at Lifetime, two weeks tennis camp, two weeks sports camp, and two weeks academic sort of camp before school start.

Interested in the summer activities they did and you recommend? Any thing you would have done differently?
