Summer Vacation Can Cost Less

I was on my 8th month of pregnancy when summer vacation started so it meant “stay home and no travel allowed”.

I was then swamped with this question. How can I avoid another summer of disappointment for myself and the kids?

Actually, summer vacations cost so much. I suspect that most people have trouble relaxing for this very reason. They’re fretting about the cost and they're worrying that they won't have enough fun to justify it. Well, I guess staying home would be a good idea then.

Probably the biggest time consumer activity is watching pirated movies, playing games, baking and gardening. But this year, I’ve decided to practice my crocheting skills since I’ve been curious about this hobby. We didn’t have this in high school so I just self-learned this through an old dusty book of my mother-in-law.

No, I am not interested in making lace table cloth, coasters and doilies. I think I don’t have the patience and skills to finish it. And furthermore, I just know some basic crochet stitches. Blankets and the like seem impossible. I always like quick and easy projects…like amigurumi.
