During the summer

[Aunt Sponge]

Do you have to keep any sort of school routine to keep your child aware and functioning well?

We do - for our oldest. If we don't then he gets lost in his own little world and becomes very distant and difficult to deal with.

We don't always follow it religiously, and I hop on here in the middle of things, but we do try to stick to it for the most part.

We have the same schdule in the summer as we do during the school year. Only instead of going to school they do workbooks here at home.
