Summer

Many kids look forward to summer throughout the school year. Summer gives kids 3 months off to relax after a long and strenuous school year. Some kids like to just stay home and watch Netflix, some kids like to spend all summer in the water, some kids like to spend time with their friends, some kids like to go travel, see their family and visit new cultures.

Different countries have different times for summer vacation. Countries like the United States have summer vacation from June-August. Argentina has summer from December to March. In Central India, schools close mid-April and opens for the year mid-June. Since Australia has summer during when the rest of the world has winter and has winter when the rest of the world has summer, their summer begins in December and ends in February. So they go to the beach and surf during Christmas.

During the summer in Texas, it is really hot and going outside from 3pm-6pm is brutal. SO all outdoor activities need to either be done before 3pm or after 6pm. Usually, I play tennis in the early morning before the temperature rises, and stay home from 3pm-6pm.
