School’s out, but do parents really get a “SUMMER BREAK?”

What would be your answer to this question?  Looking back at when my three sons when they were in elementary school, I had a hard time looking forward to the summer.  It meant I had them full-time, every minute, of every day.  My husband would laugh as he walked out the door to go to work each morning. I would hear him mumble, “I get to go to work!” Did I really get a summer break?  It sure felt like summer with the heat, but I was a taxi driver to this camp, this sport, this friend’s house, this swimming pool, etc…  When was I going to get MY break? The below article has some great tips on how summer break can be a vacation for parents too.  I really like the MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO RELAX tip!

Did you know you can make an appointment to relax every day at Four Seasons Health Club Maybe you feel it’s not relaxing to work out, but did you know that you can at least get some quiet time here at the club?  Our Childcare rooms are waiting for your children!  Both facility Childcare rooms are open Monday through Saturday 8-1pm, Monday through Thursday 4-8 and at Four Seasons 2 only, Friday 4-7 and Sunday 10-1pm.  While you relax at the juice bar, take a swim or a Group Fitness class, walk the track or get on the treadmill, rest assured your kids are having a blast in our Childcare rooms!  We play games, create craft masterpieces, read books, sing songs, etc…

Next time you find yourself needing a break, come on in to Four Seasons!  Drop off the kids in Childcare and RELAX! We hope to see you soon, Carrie DeFields, Childcare Coordinator.
