Summer is ticking away fast. For some of us August is the month of back-to-school. For others, September is the magic month. No matter which it is for you, it is time to get your kids back into learning mode. This is in addition to starting to get the household back on schedule. It was can be lot! During the summer things in my house are very loosely scheduled. We stay up late. We eat out a lot. We play hard! And yes, we watch a lot of movies. It is easy to get into relax mode. We will start to watch movies a little less, but there is still time to get some relaxation in. I’m lucky in that my kids love to watch educational programming. We sit together and watch documentaries about space, animals, science, and more. Here are 10 titles on Netflix to wake up those little brains and get them back into school mode.
