Make Summer Learning Fun<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-5\"><p>A day trip to the zoo, a walk in the park, or sitting by a pool can all become learning moments during a child\u2019s summer. Incorporate things like counting steps, timing activities, or learning about wildlife to keep children\u2019s brain active and improve things like memory and recall.<\/p>\n<p><em>Activity: Have your child figure out how deep the pool is in meters, feet, and inches.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-6\"><p data-fontsize=\"20\" data-lineheight=\"24\"><strong>2. Get into A Routine<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-7\"><p>The best way to ensure you and your child commit to summer learning is to make a routine and stick to it. If there is a time every day that you know you will be with your child, use that time to incorporate learning.<\/p>\n<p><em>Activity: At dinner time, find a brainteaser that your family can solve together.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-8\"><p data-fontsize=\"20\" data-lineheight=\"24\"><strong>3. Reading<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-9\"><p>Make a list of books for your child to read over the summer. Ensure they are the appropriate reading level.<\/p>\n<p><em>Activity: Have your child keep a journal of words that are new to them so they can work on adding them to their vocabulary.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-10\"><p data-fontsize=\"20\" data-lineheight=\"24\"><strong>4. Mathematics<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-11\"><p>Math can be one of the easiest subjects for children to slide back in during the summer.
