During the school term, schoolchildren usually do not have problems with employment. It is necessary to have time to prepare a large number of homework assignments, and in addition to this, often, and visit institutions of additional education. But during weekends and vacations, schoolchildren have a lot of free time. How to properly organize the rest so that it is beneficial for the student?
Instructions
Step 1
Sports can be a good way to relax from mental stress. The choice of discipline depends on the time of year and the inclinations of the students. For example, skiing can be a good winter fun for the whole family. At the same time, it is not necessary to purchase equipment yourself - if there is a ski lodge in your city, you can rent everything you need.
Step 2
For the summer, participation in a hike can be an interesting option. Compared to Soviet times, this type of children's recreation has become less popular, but, nevertheless, in some schools or children's clubs there are circles and groups of people who are fond of such recreation. But, most likely, for such a weekend you will need training on the basis of the same circle.
Step 3
During the summer holidays, send your student to a children's camp. Now there are a lot of them, including specialized ones, for example, with the study of foreign languages, sports camps. Participation in archaeological excavations is also possible.
The camp itself is not cheap, but you can often find an opportunity to send a child there for less. Some state and commercial enterprises provide vouchers for employees' children. You can also contact your district education department for information on existing child rest benefits.
Step 4
Take your child to a cultural event. It can be a trip to a museum, an art gallery, a theater, or a concert. In this case, it is important that the performance or exhibition matches the child's tastes and interests. Some museums or theaters also have various Sunday schools for children with teaching in acting, drawing, art history. For a culture-minded child, this can be an interesting and rewarding weekend activity.
Step 5
Take your child to a botanical garden or zoo. It will be especially interesting for a junior schoolchild - he will be able to expand his knowledge of nature, various plants and animals.
Step 6
For a high school student, a good opportunity to take their free time during the summer holidays will be temporary work. As a rule, it is paid modestly, but a teenager will be able to get the first independent experience of making money and take a step towards independence.
