KEEPING TWEENS & TEENS OCCUPIED THIS SUMMER

Summer can be a tricky time for keeping your teen busy! Here are four great ways for them to make the most of the next few months.

Tweens and teens are of an age where they are at the start of their journey to leave their young childhood behind and move towards young adulthood. As such, you might notice their behaviours, influences and character developing - which is a normal part of growing up. However, the summer holidays present the challenge of how to keep them meaningfully occupied, rather than sleeping late and getting addicted to their screens! Here are a few suggestions to keeping tweens and teens occupied during the summer break.

SUMMER INTERNSHIPS

A summer job is a great way to keep your teen busy this summer, while giving them a sense of independence and the opportunity to earn some money. Do some online research together and guide your teen through the process of writing a CV, applying for internships online, and creating online profiles on the appropriate job websites.
