Show w I The Salina Sun You and' Your Child: Principal Timothy Smith Registration materials Success in School who stop reading over the summer sometimes take until December to regain their previous level of skill. However, the young person who whiles away summer hours reading for enjoyment often has a definite advantage when school resumes. One way parents can interest children in school work during summer is to motivate them by speaking of learning as fun - not a of punishment Scouting, camping, vacation trips, baseball and swimming can be form educational, as well as fun. Dinner table interaction among family members - such as prodding every person to recite everything he or she knows about a topic such as dinosaurs - can turn a hot summer evening into something the kids consider cool. Many kids love responsibility So let them help you choose a Utah vacation destination, leam all they can about the place, suggest a route, and compute the trips cost. Cub Scouts may earn their travel badges that way. Mowing the lawn, weeding the garden, cooking diner or cleaning the house may not be welcome responsibilities for kids, but they are valuable. Hold on, though, Mom and Dad. Handing those assignments to the kids isnt enough. Some of the highest quality time you can spend with the youngsters is being with them at work, on learning projects nd at play. Be with them this summer, and theyll be with it next Fall.

Utah is 48th in per capita income because children dont produce. However, Utah is 25th in worker income, right in the middle of the country, in terms of earnings per worker. Nationally there are 31 students per 100 working age people. Utah has45 children per 100 working age people. If Utah had the average number of students, the state could reduce the education budget by one third. The tax limitation initiatives would be okay if Utah had fewer children to educate. The tax surplus may end up being a 1 5 percent credit toward 19888 returns, ButBangerter noted that We must be careful to plan for the future as well. We should be optimistic about the future of Utah and fore-sighte- d enough to remember that educating our children to be producers, not only consumers, is our most important goal, Bangerter con- cluded.
