DD7, complained and cried about not getting enough time to read in 1st grade. I thought this was just showing her fustration with being underchallenged.

Now that it is summer she has complained again, saying she does not get enough time to read. She has lots of time to do what ever she wants. We have a very limited schedule of activities.

I take her to the library weekly. She gets 10-15 books, mostly 4th grade RL, a few nonfiction and picture books. She begins reading 3 or 4 books including one with each parent for bedtime and seems to keep up with the stories. She probally reads 2 or 3 hours a day.

This is an easy going child. Is this nothing? Does it mean she is not getting enough mental stimulation this summer? (She has DYS qualifying scores)
