Summer is the hottest season of the year although children enjoy it a lot due to the long holiday. It is a very interesting and entertaining season for them as they get a chance to go swimming and enjoy the hilly areas and eat ice cream and their favourite fruits. They also enjoy long school closures during the summer holidays. Summer holidays are usually the happiest period of student. This means a lot to them as they get some time to rest from their daily school schedules. The duration of summer holidays has been reduced to forty five days in the summer season every year. Every year it starts from the third week of the month of May and ends on the last day of the last week of June. Its purpose is to have many important objectives in summer vacations along with resting from the summer heat and this gives the students a long break after the final annual examination at the end of the session. The students feel exhausted and do not take interest in studies hence and they need rest to improve their health and viability after a long year of study. Another purpose of the summer holidays is to give the students a little rest from the unbearable heat of the summer season. So summer vacation is the best option to study and give them a break from the heat. The aim is to help students to recover in weak subjects. During this time students see new places and increase their general knowledge and get time for project work. I thoroughly enjoyed my summer vacation this year. During this time I was quite happy to be free from all the work of the school days. I had already forgotten all the busy school schedules and daily household complications. I was completely unsure about planning for the summer holidays this year. My parents hid this plan from me to surprise me and I was really surprised when they told me about summer vacation plans. Actually it was a long tour to all the cultural heritage and beautiful tourist destinations of India. I have captured all those memorable moments in my smartphone which I can always keep with me. I have also clicked photos of my dear family members. Whenever we got time during the tour we clicked photos of many good activities like swimming and strolling on the green in the cool natural air in the morning etc. Along with this I did things like roaming the streets and playing football in the field etc. I tried to learn something good from people of all the cultures and traditions of India. I also met people of different religions during summer holidays in this year. I am very happy after my holidays because it has given me a lot of self satisfaction. I did a lot of shopping with my parents at various places in India during the tour. I think it was the best summer vacation of my life. Now we are back home and I have started working on my project. I also have to help my sister and brother to complete their holiday homework. Only two weeks left for our school to open. Then we will go to our village to visit our grandparent house.
