Summer Brain Drain occurs when students are away from the structured learning environment of a classroom and lose the months of knowledge they gained during the school year because they are not regularly exercising their brains. According to research from the Center for Summer Learning at Johns Hopkins University, students typically lose one to two months of reading and math skills during the summer break. But there are many things parents can do to help keep children’s minds active during the summer months and avoid these setbacks.
Our girls were sent a VTech InnoTab 2S Wi-Fi Learning App Tablet and a few games to go with it and they were thrilled. With Brooklin being so young I don’t want her to play with my expensive technology and yet she can still feel like she’s using mine with her own tablet. I like that all the games are easy and geared for kids but they also involve a lot of learning. My girls also love the camera and all the fun things you can do with photos! Again because it’s just like my technology!
