Summer is around the corner! Many parents like to have a few things prepared for keep kids learning during the summer. My favorites: playing outdoors and reading. There are also so many great camps and classes for kids. Today I’m sharing a few of our favorite summer learning printables, book lists and a new place to learn:

New Snapology

I recently learned about a place called Snapology that hosts classes, birthday parties and camps using STEM and popular toys like Legos, Knex, etc. You have to see pictures of this place. This is the type of place that kids will have a ton of fun and not even know they are there to learn!

Cool New Book for Summer Learning

I recently checked out the book Journey to Constellation Station and it’s perfect for summer learning. It’s fun for kids to read and after, you can send them outside to see what stars they can see in the night sky. It’s a rhythmic story about an interstellar train ride goes to special part of space – the magical Constellation Station. Both of my girls love the book (ages 6 & 8) and my younger kids (2 & 3) love it because of the train and beautiful pictures. I would highly recommend this book!
