Maybe your area has something similar? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/summer-activities#post-2448576 Thu, 04 Feb 2016 08:12:07 +0000 Bao 2448576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm trying to think of some things to do with the girls this summer, since LO1 won't be in preschool for a few months. I think she needs some structure at least 1-2 days a week. I don't have much money for classes but was thinking maybe taking advantage of the free library activities. Or doing something else on a regular basis, that she can look forward to. </p> <p>Will your LO do any activities this summer? Bonus if they are free and you are planning them yourself! </p>
