the stay-at-home parent, but whether itwas inertia or chronic lack of creativity,
summers at home with the kids tended
to consist of them being bored and me
counting the days until school starts. at, or I had
to shell out for pricey camps. en I got called out of
town unexpectedly, and my husband took time o
work to stay home with the kids.
Hows it going, honey? I asked when I called
home aer the rst day. I had some trepidation. He
wasnt used to this, aer all.
Great! he said. He had a system all sorted out,
and it kept him and the kids happy the rest of the
time I was gone. I wasnt sure whether to be relieved
or annoyed.
e system was remarkably simple: one fun thing
a day: something to look forward to, something to
get everyone out of the house, something inexpen-
sive, something to wear the kids out. He planned
their activity around the weather and bookended it
with rest time and chores.
I decided to adopt this program when I returned,
but was worried that Santa Fe wouldnt have enough
excursions to ll a summer. I was wrong. Even on
you get past the obvious the Santa Fe ChildrenMuseum, Quiggys, the Bicentennial Pool ther
are so many nooks and crannies to explore. Many
activities are free.
Some outings are best done during the heat of
the day: the three I already listed are among those
because they involve water or air conditioning.
Hikes near the ski basin are also good for the earl
aernoon time slot; the high elevation means coo
breezes. (Pack your sunscreen and water, though.
One of our favorites is Big Tesuque Creek. Its one
of the last hikes before the ski areas parking lot, a

garden on Bishops Lodge Road in Tesuque. e
funky bronze sculptures scattered around the grassy
grounds are fascinating to explore, though parents
should be aware that some of them are of unclothed
and anatomically correct human gures. On certain
days, you can watch molten bronze being poured.
e art gallery appeals to older kids.
Museum Hill provides many days worth of One
Fun ing. is cluster of culture on Camino Lejo
is home to the Museum of Spanish Colonial Art,
Museum of Indian Arts and Culture, Museum
of International Folk Art and the Wheelwright
Museum of the American Indian. e Folk Art
museum is my kids favorite, but the Indian Arts
and Culture museum also hosts many kid-centered
activities.
For mellow days, check out one of the many ven-
ues oering free story times for children. Borders
Books, several branches of the public libraries and
the Wheelwright Museum host story hours. Story-
teller Joe Hayes is one of Santa Fes Living Treasures.
I still vividly remember him coming to tell stories
at my own elementary school. Dont miss his sunset
story times at the Wheelwright.
Other activities are best done as early as possible,
such as El Rancho de las Golondrinas, the living
history museum near La Cienega, just south of
Santa Fe. It can be a good 10 degrees hotter there,
and we oen wilt unless we go right at opening
time. Santa Fes two skateboard parks are fun for
older kids, but bear in mind the concrete reects
the heat.
Playgrounds and lower-elevation hikes are also best
done in the morning. My kids top playground picks
are the Salvador Perez Park (AKA Train Park) on Alta
Vista Street, Franklin E. Miles Park on Camino Carlos
Rey, and Bicentennial Park on Alto Street.
For hikes, try the short loop at the Randall Davey
Audubon Center (983-4609) on Upper Canyon Road.
Two-Mile Dam is my favorite family hike, as close to
a duck pond as Santa Fe gets. e easy 1.5-mile loop
winds around whats le of the dam; now a pretty
little pond surrounded with fuzzy cattails. Dont
miss Tent Rocks, where kids will be amazed by giant
cones of volcanic rock. Take Interstate 25 south to
the Cochiti Pueblo exit; drive west until you reach
N.M. 22; follow that road to Forest Road 266 (about
40 miles from Santa Fe).

ids hankering for something dierent?
Santa Fe has much to oer, but everyone
needs a change of pace once in a while.
When the family just needs to get out of
town for a bit, Albuquerque is just a short
drive away and oers plenty of kid-friendly activi-
ties. Here are some of our familys favorites.
A ride up Sandia Peak Aerial Tramway is a must.
e tramline stretches over several miles, from
the foothills of the Sandia mountains to the crest,
a rise of nearly 4,000 feet. e ascent is dramatic,
with views you cant get anywhere else. 40 Tramway
Road. 505-242-9052. Roundtrip fares: Adults: $20.
Teens: $17. Children: $12. Children under 5: Free.
Hours: 9 a.m.-9 p.m. daily. www.sandiapeak.com
From the tram, consider hiking 1.5 miles along
the crest trail to the stone Kiwanis cabin, built in
the 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corps. is
gentle hike is appropriate for kids, but bear in mind
that its at 10,000 feet elevation. Visitors, especially
from lower elevations, might tire easily. Pack plenty
of water and sunscreen. If youre up for a scramble,
you can eat a picnic lunch on top of t he stone cabin.
Look around the cabin for the hollowed-out pion
tree: my kids like squeezing inside.
Weve been to childrens museums all over the
country and Explora! Childrens Museum is one of
our favorites. Kids can be captivated for an hour just
by the leaping water exhibit near the entrance.
Children of all ages will nd plenty to keep their
hands busy and their brains thinking. 1701 Moun-
tain Road NW. 505-224-8300. Adults: $7. Children
under 12: $3. www.explora.us
At the New Mexico Museum of Natural History
& Science, kids can admire giant dinosaurs, walk
through a volcano, and take the Evolator (evolution
elevator) through 38 million years of New Mexicos

ew exhibits, new programs, new space
and newly renovated exhibits are bound
to make the Santa Fe Childrens Museum
an exciting destination this summer. e
changes should open a whole new world
of exploration for children and youths.
Visitors have enjoyed watching construction of
a 3,500-square-foot expansion through a window
in the wall of the museum. But new exhibits have
been kept under wraps. ese will be revealed at the
Grand Opening, scheduled for May 7 if construc-
tion goes as scheduled. Opening events continue
throughout the month of May.
Several existing exhibits are undergoing transfor-mations. e magnet table is being replaced with an
icosahedron a structure composed of 20 equi-
lateral triangles that can be recongured in various
ways so children can experiment with magnets
in a three-dimensional space. Sculptor Caleb Lee
Bowman and electromagnetic scientist Neal Tapia
both volunteers designed the exhibit. We
want to move away from the model of children step-
ping up to a table to do something and instead let
them step into an experience, said Executive Direc-
tor Anna Marie Tutera Manriquez. Bowman is also
applying his artistic skills to create more dynamic
Waterworks and Bubble exhibits.
A dramatic play area where children can stage
performances or puppet shows already is completed,and the museum is developing programming on
creating narratives. A summer camp called Mon-
sters, Fairies and Wizards where 4- to 5-year-olds
explore dramatic play and storytelling utilizes the
new stage.
Changes to Earthworks, the outdoor exhibit space,
might have the most appeal during the summer
months. An existing climbing tower is being
quadrupled in size into a massive climbing struc-
ture, which Environmental Educator Melanie Beck
described as a huge, giant fort up in the air. A new
bridge, shaped like a boat, also doubles as a climbing
structure. e Youth Conservation Corps is spon-
soring employment opportunities for people 15 to
25 years old to help construct these and assist with
other projects.
e corps is also helping to create a community
garden, where children can learn sustainable gar-
dening skills. One of the summer camps, Cooking
from the Garden, shows children how to use garden
produce to create meals. A camp for 4- to 5-year-olds has had remarkable success getting kids to try
vegetables picked in the museums garden, such as
bok choy and tomatillos.
e Native Plant Society of New Mexico is part-
nering with the museum to do more xeriscaping and
teach children about native plants, another project
implemented with help from the Youth Conserva-
tion Corps. And anyone is welcome to learn tree
identication with Arborist Richard Atkinson of
Southwest Trees & Landscape, Inc.
As always, the museums week long summer camps
provide creative learning opportunities. Several of
these like a physics and science camp for 6- to
8-year-olds directly incorporate the new exhibits.
A design and construction camp for kids 9 to 11utilizes an exhibit prototyping space in the new wing.
e museum is partnering with the Jane Goodall
Institutes Roots & Shoots program for a summer
camp called Connecting with Nature. Activities
include taking care of the earth and recycling. e
Roots & Shoots curriculum is also featured once a
month on Science Sundays, beginning in May.
Other summer camps include art camps, To
the Edge of the Universe (new this year through
partnership with the New Mexico Museum of Sp
History), a camp on dinosaurs called Digs and D
coveries and Crawling and Collecting with Sa
Fe entomologist Ollie Greer. Greers exhibit of 2,
bug specimens is on display this summer.
e museum opens at 9 a.m. every Friday for P
school Prime Time, a mom and tots program. Ev
weekend has special programming, with activitie
like music classes with Lori Sunshine on Saturda
and Sunday Science. e annual Summer Solstic
celebration is especially popular.
e museum is closed from April 18 through M6 to complete renovations and install exhibits. G

oing o to sleepaway camp is oen a
childs rst big adventure as an individual
living away from home. Parents can have
questions, however, about when to send
their children to camp for a week or two
of fun and learning in the summer.
Overnight camps are typically for children ages 8
to 14, although some camps have programs for high
school students as well. With younger children, it
might be best to rst start with a shorter duration
camp a few days to one week away from home
before enrolling in a two-week camp.
While every child is dierent, we have found that
children 10-12 years old are about perfect for their
rst extended sleepaway experience, said Jordan
Stone, assistant director for Cottonwood Gulch
Expeditions, which oers exciting, relatively long
archaeological and anthropological expeditions into
remote wilderness areas, with 16 days being the
shortest in duration.
is age range usually provides a good introduc-
tion to what its like to live away from home (and
away from electronics) for a couple weeks, Stone
said. Her best advice for children who get homesick:
Stick it out. Everyone gets homesick, and some
handle it better than others, but unless there are ex-
tenuating circumstances, children will be better o in
the long run if they stick through some tough times.
Bishop Stoney Camp (also known as Camp
Stoney) oers a four-day Family Camp, where
parents accompany their children overnight. In
addition, the Christian-based camp oers a variety
of week-long overnight camps for children grades
three to 12 in the areas of outdoor adventure, arts
and cras, in addition to camps inspired by popular
childrens lms.
Beryl Zimmerman, directors assistant for Camp
Stoney, recommends that children be at least 8 years
of age before enrolling in an overnight camp. ey
are less likely to experience homesickness at this
age, she said. Zimmerman also recommends that
children know exactly when they will be dropped
o, and more importantly, what time they will be
picked up from camp. It is also useful, she said,
when parents write cards or notes to their children
and either start mailing them the week before or
hand them to the oce administrator or camp
director to be doled out during the week. Children
and older youth also might want to bring comfort
items, such as a favorite pillow, blanket, or stued
animal to keep on their beds.
And because a childs rst sleepaway camp experi-
ence can be stressful for parents as well, Zimmer-
man says it is best if the child is not be exposed to
their parents anxiety, as it will infect the child as
well. e camp asks that parents do not call the
camp to check up on their child. If a child becomes
terribly homesick, camp administrators will talk
with the child privately and ask what they can do
help them get through the next few days. ey m
also call parents to ask for advice.
Its usually during the quiet periods that child
remember to be homesick, Zimmerman said. If
they are kept busy, they dont have time to think
about it.
All camps provide packing lists, and it works o
best when parents and children pack their clothe
and supplies together so that children feel preparby knowing what they are bringing and where to
nd their things. Most importantly, dont forget t
bug spray, sunblock, lots of socks and an extra pa
of shoes, since fun and adventure oen involves
water and mud and can get pretty messy.
ough some children attend overnight camp o
once or twice, many regular campers form tight c
nections with their friends and counselors and ap
to become camp counselors when they are older.
Hummingbird Music Camp, located in the Jem
mountains, is a one-week music instruction and
outdoor adventure camp for children 8 to 14, wit
the opportunity to continue to camp as a staer,
counselor in training, counselor, and head couns
in subsequent years.Miriam Gordon, camp registrar for Humming
Music Camp, knows that parents might miss thei
children but can feel better if they completely tru
the camp they are sending their children to for th
rst time. Meanwhile, kids should prepare to hav
great time and learn loads of life skills and appro
ate ways to interact socially.
Because our camp is for musicians, they shou
also expect to become quite a bit more procient
playing their instruments, Gordon said.
Because sta director Sally Chapman is a licen
clinical psychologist, she spends plenty of time
training the sta and counselors to help them de
appropriately with any problems that might occu
Hummingbirds policy is to limit contact with hoand instead, give kids plenty of activities to keep
their minds o home and on camp.
Usually by the second day of camp, if not soon
all the campers are into whats happening in the
Jemez rather that whats going on at home, Gord
said.
Hummingbirds best tip focuses more on what
NOT to bring to camp: iPods, cell phones, laptop
MP3 players, etc., as all these distractions take aw
from the camping experience.
Our campers spend their time hiking, shing
camping, playing games, creating skits, improvin
their musical skills, and generally having a great
time, Gordon said.

s there an on/o switch for learning? If so, many
parents would like to keep the switch on for
summer but nd it a daunting task.
Keeping children engaged in stimulating men-
tal activities during the summer seems easier
said than done, especially in this age of Facebook,
video games, computer games, texting, cable TV,
and general Internet surng.
Parents, be encouraged! It can be done. You can
make this summer a learning-lled adventure but
it starts with you. While you dont have to forbid
all electronic devices, there needs to be limits.
Children may gripe at rst but once involved in
more varied activities, they will not be so obsessed
with the electronic devices.
Sometimes we forget that learning is not limited to
thefour walls of a school building andthatteachersare
not theonly ones qualiedto teach.Remember, you
were your childrens rst teacher and knowthem best.
Use this knowledge to start the planning now.
ink about your childs interests and list them.
en sit down and talk about what your child enjoys
doing and learning about. ere are a plethora of
parenting books about nding your childs passion
and how important it is to his or her development.
e summer is a perfect time to focus on your
childs passions and interests.
Next, make a second list of activities and resourc-
es in your community that relate to their interests.
If you plan one activity a week that is related to your
childs interests, you will have an engaged child who
is learning!
For my family, travel has always been a sure-re
way to tie learning and fun together. We have trav-
eled throughout the United States and each summ
we ask our children to research our planned destin
tions. Yes, its a sneaky way to get them to read and
research. Once at our destination, we try to pick
out activities that will appeal to them but also have
learning opportunities.
We found that national parks are great places to
learn about a variety of topics. As families explore
the parks, there is built-in learning as children spon
taneously ask questions in these stimulating enviro
ments. Plus, there are many informative displays on
science and history. As an added bonus, the Junior
Ranger programs are both educational and fun.
If you dont have the time or resources to travel
extensively during the summer, no problem. Santa
and the surrounding area have a variety of family-
friendly activities that can promote learning. Pick u

the book, Santa Fe with Kids from A to Z, for some
quick ideas. e authors suggest many places to visit,
such as Bandelier National Monument, the Eight
Northern Pueblos, and El Rancho de las Golondrinas.
Another book, Best Easy Day Hikes Santa Fe, will
guide you as you plan hikes in the Santa Fe area. is
book is easy to read and carry with you and gives
useful information on each hiking route such as
diculty of hike and distance. If you pair this book
with a nature guide, you and your child can immerseyourselves in the beauty of the outdoors and learn
about plants, birds and trees at the same time.
And dont forget one of the more traditional but
eective ways to encourage learning is a visit to the
library. Its fun and free! In fact, the Santa Fe Public
Library oers a variety of programs in the summer
for children. One of the most popular programs is
their annual summer reading program. According
to Director of Libraries Pat Hodapp, about 1,000
children participated in the program last summer.
Parents can register June 1. Each week, they receive
a prize and aer ve weeks, they can qualify for a
drawing for a bicycle.
Hodapp emphasizes the importance of summer
reading: Reading is so key, especially since manystudies show that students who dont read during
the summer oen drop below their grade level in
reading.
For younger children, the library oers the pre-
school story time throughout the summer as well as
a cra program for kids. e cra program also en-
courages reading by tying stories and cras together.
Hodapp also recommends choosing books that
have been made into movies to motivate reluctant
readers. Two of her favorites are Charlottes Web and
Te Borrowers.
Amy Barr, a childrens librarian at the Santa Fe
Public Library, suggests parents and kids check out
kidsreads.com and teenreads.com for great book
suggestions, reviews and contests.For elementary-aged readers, Barr recommends
any book by Andrew Clements. For older elemen-
tary students and middle-schoolers, she suggests
books by Joseph Bruchac. He combines Native
American legends with contemporary stories to cre-
ate suspenseful tales. Finally, for older teen readers
with a zombie obsession, she says Rot & Ruin by
John Maberry is a good choice.
For more specic ideas for learning this summer,
parents can nd good suggestions in 365 Fun-Filled
Learning Activities by Mary Weaver. It is an excel-
lent source of inexpensive, easy-to-do activities for
children under 10.
Another book that oers great advice is Te Fieen
Minute Organizerby Emilie Barnes. Barnes advises
parents to put together a Summer Project Box. is
survival kit will help when the kids begin to feel the
boredom blues. She suggests assembling the basics:materials for arts and cras, activities and adventures.
So, dont delay. Get your pen, paper, summer proj-
ect box, National Parks pass, and library card and
you will be on your way to a summer of fun-lled
learning adventures with your child.

four boys. She has taught in middle schools, a college,
and homeschooled one of her sons.

hildren ages 6 through 18 have plenty of
choices for camp through the city of Santa
Fes Summer Youth and Summer Teen Pro-
grams and the Genoveva Chavez Centers
Day Camp and Sports Camp programs.
An impressive array of activities is oered through
each program, although fees, registration and pro-gram dates vary.
Deborah Trujillos daughters, Marisa, 9, and
Mikayla, 14, have been attending the program since
each was 6 years old.
I like the activities they oer and the low cost.
Both my girls go to private school so at summer
camp theyre able to meet kids they wouldnt other-
wise meet. One thing I really like about the program
is that they block o one half hour or 45 minutes for
reading. ey do all kinds of arts and cras and jew-
elry making. Where else are you going to get child-
care for ve to six weeks for $160? Trujillo asked.
ey split them up by age group. I dont want my
6-year-old hanging out with 12-year-olds. e sta is
real good; weve never had a problem. e girls haveattended a variety of sites. Sometimes we pick one
that is closer to where we live or sometimes they want
to go where the sta they know are working she sa
Keeping kids busy is a big part of the camps.
Last year our sites incorporated the Lets Mov
program of an hour of movement every day, said
Terrie Rodriguez, director of the Youth and Fami
Services Division for the city. e response was s
positive. In addition to stretching and calisthenicour kids did dance, yoga, sports and just ran arou
the playground. We incorporated more walking
trips and of course the ever-popular swimming a
the citys pools. Two of our sites were able to gard
last summer. Spending time working in a garden
gives a child a new appreciation for where food
comes from and preparing healthy snacks.
According to Edith Martinez of the C ommuni
Services Department, the Lets Move theme inclu
an Olympics Day to be held on June 24 that incor
porates track and eld events, outdoor volleyball,
basketball, water polo and weight liing at Fort Ma
We try not to make it too competitive. Par-
ticipants keep track of how theyre doing on their

Despite the popularity of the city camps, Martinez
doesnt expect the city to have to turn away any par-
