Help Kids Take A Last Grab At Summer

In the Morris School District, summer vacation is all but over. Here are five fun things to do with your kids on the last day before they return to the grind:

1. Buy A New Outfit: Even something as simple as a new T-shirt can provide a morale boost for he first day of school. Everywhere you look, there are sales on kids' clothes, including locally at Kohl's.

2. See a Movie: Catch a showing of "Cars 2," "Spy Kids: All The Time In The World," "Kung Fu Panda 2" or "The Smurfs" at local theaters. 

3. Eat Ice Cream: Say goodbye to summer with a tower of ice cream balanced on a sugar cone. Head to , , or, if you like gelato, Mara's in Denville.kate until 9:30 on Wednesday night at .

4. Take A Walk in the Rain: The frivolity ends once the school bell rings, so do something goofy today like take a stroll in the rain and splash through some puddles.

5. Lay Around Doing Nothing: The worst thing about going back to school is that you lose the right to just be; to lay in the sun, loll in bed, sprawl by the pool. So be lazy one last time before teacher cracks the whip.
