Homeschool Resource Educents Summertime Learning Made Easy

Good morning, and how are you this morning? Have you decided what you and your children will be doing this Summer? Will they be attending school or not? I think Charlie and I will, and we had thought about using k12 for 3rd grade.

I have been struggling with that decision, and I think we decided last night to teach him on our own. So today I would like to invite you to check out this new Homeschool Resource Educents Summertime Learning Made Easy.

Summertime can lead to a lull in learning – here are fantastic resources to stave off summer brain drain!

Beginning Architecture

Mini Frank Lloyd Wrights of the world unite! This interactive, 3-part series provides the first fundamentals of structures, home design, and even zoo design! The sky is the limit, and this series provides a strong foundation, putting the FUN in fundamentals with a genuinely engaging program. Summer is a perfect time to give this comprehensive online course a try – you’ll be grabbing marshmallows for camping, anyway. Why not do s’mores after you complete a project?

Zone Cleaning

Every season is a great time to teach your little ones, but the summertime is a unique opportunity to learn about cleaning! Kids often have a bit of time on their hands – and do a bit more outdoor activity that brings in the dirt! Zone Cleaning comes with a DVD that explains cleaning step-by-step by room using visuals and includes a dry erase flipbook with checkboxes for each task to be completed. Kids learn from professionals and get a sense of accomplishment when they cross off their jobs.

Best of all, it teaches a more thorough approach to clean each zone, so the area doesn’t need extra attention afterward! Time well spent – and time saved for years to come!

Tegu On-The-Go Magnetic Blocks

These are the coolest! Remember geometric blocks from your early school days? I used to have Haba brand, and being made. But fear not! The Tegu blocks take the concept and run with it. These handcrafted geometric blocks have a beautiful color palette and more importantly – magnets! The possibilities are endless with hands-on play-learning about magnetic fields and chemistry while creating something unique. It comes with a handy carry pouch, too – perfect for road trips and easy-to-pick-up activities when you reach your destination.

Peel, Play & Learn Solar System Wall Play Set

Summer stargazing has always been a favorite activity. With clear skies and warmer nights, kids can only look up and discover the universe! This reusable wall decal set brings it all back to learning (and hands-on fun) – in turn making the sky an excellent source of wonder and education. I love that these made of non-toxic, reusable fabric easily cleaned. A discussion about constellations during the day leads to discovery in the evening and vice versa, creating a fun, virtuous cycle of activity and learning. The solar system mini-set is perfect for summer trips, and you can expand the knowledge at home with the larger set.

 

Peel & PlayMini USA

Summer time often means time on the road visiting relatives. I love the idea of incorporating learning about the states with all of this travel! This mini-set of non-toxic, BPA free decals of the United States is a great way to avoid brain drain and boredom with relevant learning. And since it’s small, you can pack it up during a road trip and prepare for a 4th of July Quiz! How about a timely treat for those who can name all the states? The beauty of this set is that it’s great for many aged learners.

The set can also be used as a tool to keep track of the states you and your little ones have visited so far, and learn about what’s to come with visual and hands-on activities.

eMedia Guitar Beginner Pack for Kids

Time to face the music – but in a good way! SUMMER is coming and kids tend to want to flex their creative muscles a bit more than the rest of the year. This quarter-sized guitar is a great fit to kick-off a lifelong love of music.

Designed to keep kids engaged and learning, the comprehensive set includes software with 60 guitar sessions that use videos, songs, and specialized interactive music games. Maybe my favorite part is that you don’t need to know guitar for your learner become a rock star – instead, animated Gary the Guitar will lead the way, and guitarist and instructor (with a PhD!) demonstrates the skills your little one will learn. Music to my ears.
