The school is over. And this means kids are everywhere.
Parents, I know what you’re going through right now. I’m a mom of four, and summer isn’t really the “exciting” part of the year.
Joke! Of course, summer is exciting!
This is the time you get to bond with your children in the beach, pool, or even a massage together is enough. This is the best season to rekindle with your spouses or partners too. Admittedly, though, this is the season where the kids are at home with nothing to do but to whine about boredom. As a work at home parent, this is extremely exhausting.
Make it four, please.
So, if you need some quality time or ‘me time’, send your kids to these summer classes near you!
