We used to school through the summer, I really personally love the idea (in a scaled back way). Now that the kiddos are older though, they started to resent it since all of their friends don't do school in the summer. Plus, breaks are good too. For me as much as for them. Honestly, summers feel like a vacation for me too even though I still work - it is just so much less stressful! We do reading in the summer and that is it unless I get a brilliant idea for some sort of activity. They go along with the reading because it's a requirement before any video games can be played.
