Happy First Day of Summer: Share Your Memories

Happy First Day of Summer: 
Share Your Memories

Take time this summer to share your memories of summers gone by.  If you are taking care of an older loved one, ask about early memories of summer. 
Before air conditioning? 
Maybe in another part of the country or world?
Vacation trips?
Working on the farm?
Going to camp?

What were the family activities in the summer?
Gardening?  Canning?
Picnics?
Homemade ice cream?
Swimming?



Get out the old picture albums and write down the names of those relatives before your loved ones forget.
Summertime is a wonderful time to play some of the games that were played before TV, Internet, and smart phones.
Wonderful time to tell stories and read good books.
Share those memories now.
