<p>One of the best experiences my kids had over the summer was when then went on an overseas Taiwan study tour for a month together with their cousin. They all had a great time & bonded so they are closer than ever! S was even able to find an employer who was fine with him taking off for a month in the middle of his summer internship.</p>
<p>The summer internships my kiddos have had: D worked at a public TV station & did a very tedious transcription of interviews on slack-key guitars. She liked answering the phones during the call-in portion of a show MUCH better. S has worked at a summer science program for 3 summers–he really enjoyed it and they went on a lot of field trips. He has also worked in a microbiology lab at the local U as well as an intern at NASA. He found all of the experiences interesting, tho they didn’t pay as well as he might wish.</p>
