Plan Your Summer Routine
It might be tempting to let your kids sleep in really late and float through the day without a schedule for the summer.  We usually allow this for a week tops and then we switch to a kids summer schedule.  This helps keep them from getting too much screen time or getting bored. I also feel like it is a great way to schedule in summer learning activities.

My kids and I sit down together to plan our daily routines. Depending on the age of your children, 11 and under you may want to take the lead, 12 and over you may want to let them take the planning lead.  It is a great way for them to learn to organize their time. You can print several of the kids summer schedule templates and fill them out each week or all at once in advance and make additions as things come up.

You may want to schedule in things like summer camp, reading time, musical instrument practice, and chores. Believe it or not, your kids will appreciate the structure, but don’t forget to put in some down time for creative play and outdoor fun!

Make Necessary Appointments
The summer is a great time to schedule in any doctor or dentist appointments that you can get out of the way while the kids are out of school.  If you take your kids to the dentist during the summer, your dentist’s office should be able to block out time during the day to see all of your kids at once.

Buying School Supplies
Use this task to teach your kids about getting the best deals on what they need for the new school year. If you haven’t yet, get a hold of the school supply lists that you’ll need for this project. Throughout the summer, have your children track store ads (found in the Sunday paper) for these items, writing down the store and the best price they can find. To extend the lesson, give them a budget that they need to stay within for their school supplies, and then give them that specific amount of money. Take a family field trip to the stores they’ve written down that have the best prices, and have them buy their school supplies.

Brush Up Those Reading Skills
Summer reading is a great activity for kids to keep their reading skills sharp and to teach delayed gratification. Many businesses – like Barnes and Noble, Chuck E. Cheese, and Borders – support local reading with special calendars, resulting in free items and additional special offers once the calendars are completed and turned in.   Find  some summer reads for moms and top picks for kids books.

Plan Summer Fun
Summer tasks are important, but so is fun time with your family. Be sure to plan some fun summer activities for kids, putting corresponding outings onto specific dates of your long-term summer calendar. Make sure to schedule in some time for playing outside, swimming in the community pool, or heading to the local children’s museum.

teaching kids to use a schedule
My son used the printable kids summer schedule template. My daughter had to out do me and hand make her own bullet journal style schedule. They do learn quickly!

I hope this kids summer schedule template helps you organize your summer because it always flies by!   These summer schedule planning tips should help you make the most of your summer for both fun and getting things done!  This is really a great idea for helping your child learn to become organized as well.  Do you think you will give it a try?
