It's hard to believe but my two girls are starting school back up here in Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire in less than two weeks. Once again, summer flew! Now that I've recovered from the jet lag since our return from summer break stateside, I'm spending a bit of time each day with the kids doing something to say goodbye to summer and usher in the school year. Our first activity was to draw and doodle memories of our summer. (You can easily see which one is mine because I am the only one who followed the prompt!) No matter! We had fun drawing together and the kids reflected with me and helped me remember all the stops we made. This activity might be a fun one to do with your kids to capture all the memories before we are all in on school and activities and daily life again - Both my 9yo and my 12yo had fun with it.
If you are looking to capture the last few days of summer with fun and purpose, I have a whole list of ideas for you. I'm going to do something each day until school starts! Some from the list, some not from the list.
