Its Summertime,

School Vacation has begun,

Time for children to play,

And have fun in the sun.

Now the children

Are out of school.

There are trees to climb,

Swimming in the pool.

Time to spend

With Special friends.

Seems they’re on the go

Until the days end.

But when summer vacation

Is finally through,

It’s time to hit the books

And return to school.

Dear Children,

It’s summer time once again. A time to relax, to catch up on

missing moments, to play as much, to watch television and the

list is endless. In short it is time for Leisure, a time to learn, to

grow to improve on our skills. So, here are a few suggestions to

help you utilize this time constructively:

-

Read a book

Have a routine, because without discipline one ends up wasting time.

Indulge in outdoor Activities like gardening, yoga, swimming etc.

Learn a new skill, pottery, quelling, doodling, carpentry.

Time is a precious resource; spend it with your loved ones.

Visit your grandparents and listen to them. They know more than

Google.

Share household chores with your parents.

Help someone- Teach someone.

Adopt a plant and look after it.

Stay hydrated.

Remain indoors.

Do your homework neatly and carefully.
