Sunny, breezy, and warm ... that means one thing ... summer is on the way!

If you have children in school, chances are they're counting down the days until summer vacation. While everyone deserves a break, too much down time can take a toll on some kids.

If you've been meaning to check out summer activities, our education expert Jennifer Di Ruocco, says now is the time. In this month's Teacher's Thoughts she has some good advice on choosing a summer camp. We also have provided links to get more information. The "biggies" like Omaha Children's Museum and Henry Doorly Zoo are represented, but I'm curious about some of the options out there that might not be as well known.

Have a camp your child just loved? Post a comment and let the rest of us know about it. One of the things I like best about this blog is learning from other people's experiences.
