Here are 10 of the most common summer challenges with specific ideas to help us focus on the blessings. Boredom isn't a sin. It's ok, even good, to be bored sometimes. Too many of us are raising kids who feel it's their right to be entertained. Our primary job as parents is not to make sure our kids are always having fun but to raise kids with godly character.
Balance is needed.
On the other hand, it's helpful to have a list of fun things to do in the summer. Gather the family together and have a brainstorming session. Collect lightening bugs in a jar, write a letter, clean out your room and host a garage sale, start a neighborhood book club. Resist the temptation to let the TV be the cure for boredom. You need to take that responsibility and simply turn it off.
