Last year Charlie has a little bit of trouble in school with not only his reading but his writing. So this Summer I wanted to make sure he spent time on both of it. As he will be in 2nd grade and since he did not get a good teacher last year. I wanted to make sure he was ahead this year. Just encase we end up with a teacher that does not send the items home children need.
So as I was browsing online to find things for Charlie to do I found a blog called Making Time for Mommy and I am so glad I did as she had a list of places to find Summer Reading. So Charlie and I have been working through her list and it is helping.
As Charlies reading is improving every day. Now if I could get David to join in we might be able to improve his reading as well. But I can tell you even though he says he would like to get better he will not join us in these programs. But I would as I love to read.
I have always had my daughter and I join the Summer Library reading program when she was here. So I do the same thing with Charlie. Who is so funny as he will walk into the library and clean off a whole shelf and bring all the books home and have them read in just a couple days.

So if you would like to find out about some of the Summer Reading Programs going on you can by visiting Making Time for Mommy at http://www.makingtimeformommy.com/2015/05/06/free-summer-reading-programs-for-kids
If you do check out Making Time for Mommy let me know what you found on her blog that you enjoyed.

As I want to also read her 2015 Summer Bucket list for families. As I am sure there will be things on it I can do with Charlie and David. That we may never have thought of doing.
