Summer is not just a time for relaxation and play—it's also the perfect time to keep your child engaged and learning. This year, I'm excited to introduce my Summer Learning Bundles, meticulously designed for closing the learning gap over the summer months. With over 85 pages of content tailored to various age groups, these bundles come with a two-month, week-by-week guide to help you plan and execute a summer of fun, learning, and growth.
Why Summer Practice is Crucial in Closing the Learning Gap
The summer slide is a well-documented phenomenon where children lose knowledge and academic skills due to the long break from formal learning. My Summer Learning Bundles are crafted to keep your child's mind active and learning throughout the summer, ensuring they return to your homeschool routines in the fall, ready and refreshed, without missing a beat!
What's Inside the Summer Learning Bundles

Dive into summer with the Sprouts bundle, designed specifically for preschool-aged children. This bundle acts as a comprehensive learning tool that can replace or supplement a Pre-K curriculum. It's packed with activities that cover basic skills in a fun and engaging way, fostering the curious minds of your youngest learners with zero prep necessary from parents.
Week-by-Week Guide: Each week, you'll introduce new concepts that build on the previous week's learning, keeping your child engaged with a variety of educational themes and activities.
Explorers: Early Learners (Ages 6-8)

How to Make the Most of Your Summer Bundles
Plan Ahead: Use the included two-month guide to plan your summer learning schedule. This guide will help you organize your days and weeks to balance learning with summer fun.
Stay Consistent: Regular short sessions can be more effective than sporadic long ones. Try to incorporate daily learning moments that don’t overwhelm but consistently reinforce new knowledge and skills.
Incorporate Play: Remember that learning can and should be fun! Integrate educational games, outdoor activities, and creative projects that align with the learning themes in your bundles.
Review and Reflect: At the end of each week, spend some time reviewing what your child has learned and discuss any new ideas or questions they might have. This reflection not only reinforces learning but also encourages curiosity and deeper understanding.
