Although Toddler Pencil is at a full-time private school/daycare, I decided to opt out of the summer program. His school is very academic based, and I figure this is the last time he will be able to just hang out and do nothing as a kid. Next fall, he will be starting pre-K!

My husband thinks I’m a little nuts for wanting to stay at home with both of the kids, but I’m a little excited! Baby Pencil is 9 months old and easy to travel with. I’m planning on wearing her while I take Toddler Pencil around with me. I signed up for the following summer activities:

  • Swimming classes once a week
  • My Gym classes once a week
  • Performance Art camp (1 week)
  • Art classes once a week
  • Vacation Bible School (1 week) at a local church
  • LA Zoo membership

These activities were all carefully picked based on his interests. I would have loved him to be in sports, but he said he only wanted to do swimming, art, and My Gym. I chose a performance art camp for him because I’m curious to see how he would do. He absolutely loves performing, music, and talking in front of people and is very social. However, I don’t know if he’s only like that around the comfort of his family and friends.

Along with these activities, I am also planning to take him to the following places in the LA area:

Am I crazy that I’m excited to explore these areas? Talk to me in a few weeks and let’s see how I’m holding up!
