One of the interesting things one can do in the summer holiday months, when the children are out of school, are family activities concerning religion.
One thing could be a night, or even two nights, when the entire family studies the Catechism of the Catholic Church together, if one has children over the age of 13 or so.
Another fun thing to do is to make videos of the lives of the saints-let the kids do this.
A third possibility is making a Bible Garden, which would be planting and harvesting some of the plants mentioned in the Bible.
There are resources out there for such things.
Do not waste the hours of daylight and the time off.
We would make little dramas for the other kids in the neighborhood. Moms would share gifts making crafts and having kids over to learn new skills.
Sharing is a great way to build community, but begin with and in your own family.
Give your children wonderful memories and ideas to carry on into the next generation.
