VACATION IDEAS FOR CHILDREN ON HOLIDAY

VACATION IDEAS FOR CHILDREN ON HOLIDAY

It’s the period of the year again where our kids go on long vacation from school. For some parents it’s another hectic period where we wonder what to do with our kids, how to engage them productively, who to watch over them while we are not around and the likes. Some even go ahead to ship their children to other relatives in the bid to keep the peace at home, and as the Lagos State government has banned summer schools, this decision becomes tougher for parents.

Here are ideas you can engage your kids with while they are on holiday:

Home Based Coachings

Here selected teachers come to the home to teach/ coach the children on various academic subjects but, parents have to be careful in selecting lesson teachers as some home teachers cannot be trusted.

Home Vocational Coachings/Skill Acquisitions

This is one of the best times to train children especially teens in vocational trainings and various skills acquisition.

Summer camps & Vacation Bible Schools

Various churches and Christian bodies organise their Summer camps and children’s programme this period to train, teach and pray over the kids. This would be a great avenue for the children to go get trained in the ways of the Lord.

Reading and Book Clubs

Children can be taught to read by engaging them in reading book clubs. Where they read books to each other and explain lessons learnt to each other. It is advisable to have an adult around to ensure order and co-ordination.
