Free, Fun Recommendations To Keep Kids (and Maybe Caregivers, Too) Entertained and Prevent Summer Learning Loss – Week 10
For this final week of summer enrichment, I am recommending games and activities from a variety of sources. The educational games and online activities may not work on all devices or browsers. You may have to create a free account in order to use them or to save your child’s progress. I have included these resources with the hope of encouraging children to practice what they have already learned, but often on the pages I linked to, there will be links to further resources so children can review what they’ve learned or learn more. Please email me at charityawareness@commonheart.org with questions or comments.
This is the last week of summer enrichment posts. But you can go back to the old posts at any time. And the sites I have shared don’t just have games. You and your child can go back and explore the websites for activities, worksheets, videos and help understanding concepts.
