"...the child should have a set time everyday to read for fun. Begin with half an hour for first graders, and build up to an hour of reading time daily... This is an important part of the child's education: it improves his reading skills, teaches him the habit of sitting still with a book, and reminds him that reading is fun... free reading ought to be spent on literature at or slightly below the child's present reading level so that he can simply enjoy himself.

Therefore, we certainly could not afford all the amazing summer camps available for kids. But nevertheless, we wanted to give our kids all the enrichment. But the only thing our kids had was me . I was literally the only thing we could afford back then. But I wasn't Swim Camp. Or was I? I remember standing in my kitchen realizing that my kids did not actually need camp. I was qualified enough to be hired by just about any camp I was looking into. So why couldn’t I just be the camp? I could find a place with free to little admission fees, some of the same exact places camps were going to. I could pack lunches. I could take my kids everyday for a week or even two just as if it were an actual camp I'd paid for and was dropping them off to. The only difference: I'd be the one
