Every time the end of summer approaches, all those memories of my children's vacation come to mind. Unforgettable, special, magical. And now, on the last day of August, it is when they become more intense and when I want to help you to offer formulas so that your children also keep the unforgettable memories of a summer that ends.
It is true that classes do not start within 10 days. It is also true that the summer officially lasts until 21. But few children are lucky enough to be able to continue enjoying those wonderful things about the vacations beyond the end of this month.
Soon they will start packing, closing the summer houses or returning the keys of the rental ones, they will say goodbye to their friends, keep some pebbles or some sand in a little box and sigh, knowing that until in a year everything This luxury, the luxury of free time and freedom, will not return. Now they stay with the unforgettable memories of a summer that ends.
Family memories in summer
One of the things children enjoy most on vacation and the one that most beautiful memories you can offer is from the family. Although adults sometimes overwhelm us with the tumult of a full house, of the closest coexistence of the habitual one, for the children the summer is the time of the family.
First, to be with their parents, who usually spend the year with a lot of work and little time to dedicate to the children. They can talk, accompany them to the purchase, tell them stories, help them with academic subjects that they want to review, walk with them, teach them how to ride a bicycle, swim or climb trees, cook together; There are many fun activities we can do with children in summer.
It is very important that parents, especially if they are not very present during the course, are a fundamental part of the experiences of children in summer now that we have more free time. For them it will be an indelible memory, the one that may leave the greatest imprint on his whole life.
They will remind us of taking a nap by their side, taking them to collect colored pebbles on the beach, peeling the fruit of the snack while they play with their friends, sitting together in a summer cinema, watching the fireworks and telling them the stories of their own childhood
But all those beautiful memories that are going to make them love us forever we must create them, with patience, with dedication. Enjoying being with children and allowing them to have unforgettable summer memories with their families.
But let's not forget that, precisely in summer, it is when many children have the opportunity to coocer and enjoy the rest of their extended family. Grandparents and uncles, but especially cousins, who often live in the same house and enjoy a lot together.
I get the impression, when I see how they love it and how they adapt so naturally to the convent, that children need that extended family and that it is a mistake to have deprived them of it in everyday life.
The unforgettable memories of summer friends
The other source of unforgettable memories of summer are undoubtedly friends. I still have, summer after summer, contact with my childhood friends with whom I formed a gang that met again every year. Although we later separated, during those two or three months we would be more than brothers. We spent the whole day together, we ate at each other's house, we stayed to sleep on mattresses on the floor, we told each other all the secrets and invented a thousand adventures.
These relationships are never forgotten and can even be part of our lives forever. I, this summer, met a very special friend whom I had not seen for twenty years, my childhood love, and it is wonderful to discover by looking at each other that, despite all the blows of life, we maintain the ability to see That light that shone in our children's eyes. It is as if the soul feeds on that eternal and unforgettable summer.
These experiences of deep friendships, fed on the long days of free time, games, reverie and discoveries, are something that our children deserve to have. There will be friends who repeat themselves every year and become part of the network of their lives and others who will come, new, every year, to complete their experiences.
Friends with whom to spend the night counting shooting stars, with whom to run in the sand and laugh jumping waves, with those who learn to throw themselves in the head, to build sandcastles, with which to sail for the first time and to invent costumes and adventures Freedom, golden freedom, pure, that of the game and laughter, is something that will always be linked to the memory of summer.
Those friends too, like family, are part of the unforgettable memories of a summer that ends. That our children enjoy these experiences of human contact, of real, natural and vital socialization, is part of their vital vital learning and, of course, will give them beautiful memories to keep forever.
