Summer programmes can add a lot of fun to the long holidays, but only if they fit the child

Angela Baura:

With the long summer holidays upon us, many parents will be hoping to keep themselves sane and their children entertained by signing them up for summer classes. But with a plethora of programmes to choose from, selecting one that will entertain and educate your child can be a daunting task.

"It is not productive to push a child into a programme of activity in which they show little motivation."
