Summer vacation is almost here! Summer is a great opportunity for children to participate in enrichment activities. Generally speaking, there is more time for this in the summer because schedules are a little less hectic and structured. There are so many activities and opportunities out there...things that can be done at home as well as things that can be done in various locations. These range from computer based learning, to hands on activities in the real world. I have compiled some resources for you to check out. Try a few of these this summer!
