While some parents are excited for summer time to come (meaning there’s no more waking up early to prepare for all the things their kids would need in school), there are some who are really
terrified
not looking forward to it. The kids are going to be at home for at least three months, so Moms and Dads are trying to figure out of ways to keep their little ones busy this summer.
