Babysitter's Guide to Summer Reading Goals

Most kids have summer reading or homework to do over their break, but it doesn't have to feel like a slog to get it done!. NH State Parks and New Hampshire history have you covered for accomplishing this with a day trip to Robert Frost Farm Historic Site in Derry.The farm is where New Hampshire’s most notable poet lived with his family. You can take a guided tour of the home any day of the week, as well as join the Robert Frost Homestead Trustees for a full events calendar in the summer. Of course, Robert Frost’s poems make a perfect subject for summer projects and reading lists, and the Trustees’ website is home to more teaching resources to keep kids' minds engaged over the break.
