Keeping Your Kids Minds Sharp Over Summer
Vacation
Summer is in full swing, but it won’t be long
until it’s time for kids to go back to school. Whether building better study
habits for the new school year or reviewing lessons from last year, parents need
to keep those little learners sharp over summer vacation. Some parents might
argue that summer is a time for kids to take a break. But children really do
need to study over the summer.
With Summer Studying Kids Will:
- Be ready to go when school starts. A
child’s mind and body need the healing respite of the summer’s warmth. But
studies show that when children take an extended break from learning, they
often require a longer start-up period at the beginning of the school year.
- Better retain what they learned last year.
Keeping your children’s minds and bodies active during the summer ensures they
will maintain the knowledge learned in the previous year.
- Be more confident in their academic
abilities. Educators also caution that students who haven’t kept up on
scholastic skills acquired in the previous school year can lose
self-confidence, which impedes their future learning.
