Summer Scripture Study



Summer brings its own issues with getting your family scripture study done. It is hard to keep up the schedule when summer life is so different from the regular calendar of school days. 

Here's some points to keep in mind:

1) It is really easy to get to the end of the day and send the kids to bed, then realize scripture study was never done. Try scheduling the study time into your day. Look at the day and find when your family can study together. It could change daily. Put it on your calendar.

2) Be creative. Sometimes I'll read to the kids while they are in bed. Sometimes they read to me while I finish up the dishes. Make it work. 


3) Use the flexibility and fun of summer to do something different with your study time. Act out the story, read at the park, or hang up a long sheet of paper and let the kids draw a mural (or how about decorate your sidewalk with scripture stories) while you read.


4) Don't forget to bring your scriptures along on vacation.

 Pack them, and don't forget to read them.
