Tips From Reading Rockets on How to Keep Your Kids Learning During the Summer Months

Wow! How quickly the school year passes. My kids are in school until the last week in June, so it's not quite over yet. But school is certainly winding down and we're all getting ready to switch into summer mode.

With that in mind, I thought I'd link you to an article on Reading Rockets website that gives tips for how to keep your kids learning over the summer. I don't know about you, but I for one am not up for anything too structured when it comes to summer learning. I just know I'm not going to pull out those workbooks and try to force my kids to work on them over the summer. What I liked about this article is that the suggestions are simple ones and things that easily fit into normal summer life.  

Go check it out and let me know what you think.
