Facing summer with her two boys, ages ten and seven, Pam Lobley was sifting through signups for swim team, rec camp, night camp, scout camp, and enrichment classes. Overwhelmed at the choices, she asked her sons what they wanted to do during summer: Soccer? Zoo School? Little Prodigys Art Club?Why cant we just play? they asked.A summer with no scheduled activities at all . . . The thought was tempting, but was it possible? It would be like something out of the 1950s. Could they really have a summer like that?Juggling the expectations of her husband (Are you going to wear garters?), her son, Sam (Im bored!), and her son, Jack (Can I just stay in my pajamas?), Pam sets out to give her kids an oldfashioned summer. During the shapeless days, she studies up on the myths and realities of the 1950s. With her trademark wit and candor, she reveals what we can learn from those longago families, why raising kids has changed so drastically, and most importantly, how to stop time once in a while and just play.
