Do it yourself summer camp - a list of daily morning activities/tasks for the kids during summer break to keep their bodies and brains active and their house clean. At the end of the week they earned 25 cents for each task completed. The afternoons were for outings, water play, playing with friends, trips to the library, etc. // power of moms
