What do your summers look like with daycare children?
Summer is play, play and more play.
If a "fun" outside or summer activity or craft looks exciting, I might toss it into the day but I certainly don't plan for anything specific.
Our curriculum and daily routine are pretty set during the school year that I think like bigger kids, having the summer "off" is much more enjoyable and more fun for the kids!
