10 Your parents' calendars fill up fast . Clue them into what you most want to do this summer. Trips, museums, zoos, and other outings may need planning and can be expensive. You stand a better chance if you tip them off ahead of time. 9 Boring or exciting? Make a prediction about your summer and be prepared with the proof. Start a scrapbook or a journal and record every nitty-gritty detail as evidence. 8 Start a Know-It-All Club with your friends. Become experts on bugs, gardening, rocks, Indians, cooking, or whatever! Check out books and videos from the library. Make T-shirts and a secret handshake. Plan a Know-It-All party and teach your parents a thing or two! 7 Sell stuff. Get money. With your parents' permission and/or help, offer to organize a garage sale. Sell your own homemade cookies and lemonade. Cut a deal with your parents about how the profits will be spent. Give a portion to a charity. (Make sure you have a parent hanging around whenever you're dealing with strangers!) 6 Admit maybe you don't really know everything. Ask Mom, Dad, Grandma or Grandpa to teach you something new . Would you like to know how to make chocolate chip cookies, learn to knit, launch a rocket, or build a birdhouse? 5 Go outside and wonder. Track the weather. Observe the bugs. Watch a garden grow. Count the stars. As you wonder why, how and if, go to the library or check the Web to find the answers. Try searching on Yahooligans to find the answers to your questions. 4 Surf the Web safely and smartly. Ask your parents to help you find good websites on whatever interests you. Beware of chat rooms or clicking on some of those "advertisements." Check out the great web links for kids at BuddyProject! 3 Don't spend too much time in front of the computer, television or video game screens or your eyes will stay crossed forever and your brain will melt. (Just kidding. Kind of.)
