Summer Options! Reading Help
As much as summer is for vacation and relaxing, it’s also a good time to “keep up” without the pressure. In Verona, there is a large focus on reading, which I personally love. It’s almost a shame that in my experience only the 2nd graders are required to read for 20 minutes a day. What [...]
Summer Options! Nature Camp
The Essex County Environmental Center in Roseland is offering summer camp programs for kids that are all about nature. And they run in the afternoon, which makes them an option after swim team and summer music get out. The camp for kids in grades 1 and 2 runs from July 19 to 30, from 1 [...]

Summer Options!
Summer is officially here. The pool is open, I’m done packing lunch, and my kids are done counting down the final days of the school year. As much as I look forward to summer (we drove by the pool in February just to see it) even the pool becomes a little redundant. There’s only so [...]
