4 Ways To Keep Your Kid’s Brains Active All Summer Long
Kids across the country will soon close their books, put down their pencils and adjust their inner clocks to the unstructured hours of summer. While it’s a necessary break from the routine of school, summer can also be a great time to find fun ways to keep kids from losing what they’ve learned. Studies going back decades have documented a “summer slide” among kids who don’t engage in enough mental work during summer vacation. Then, in the fall, teachers must spend weeks reviewing concepts students learned the previous year before moving on to the new grade’s lessons.
To combat the slide, parents can strike a balance between learning and fun, infusing summer lessons with informality and grabbing opportunities to teach where they can find them. Most have learned through trial and error that sitting kids down at set times of day with work to do in the summer backfires. The more it feels like schoolwork, the faster you lose them. In contrast, keeping it fun can not only keep kids from falling behind but also may give them a leg up when they head back to class in the fall.
Here are some ways to keep kids’ minds active when they’re out of school:
1) Summer reading
Summer reading programs have been around for a century, providing age-appropriate options for kids of every grade and helping those who aren’t naturally great readers to find the material that will make them want to pick up a book. Public libraries are trying to do more outreach and trying to connect more with parents to get their kids reading in the summer. Books designed as bridges from the old grade to the new are also available and can help prepare kids to start classes in the fall. Still, parents don’t necessarily need an outside program to keep kids engaged with books.
2) Science, from nature to chemistry set
Families who spend quality summer time outdoors have abundant natural learning resources. If you’re traveling to another part of the country or the world, do some homework first with your kids about what you’re likely to see when you get there. If you’re closer to home, take along books about the natural flora and fauna, so your kids have a resource to learn more about the nature they’ve just met in person. Indoor science lessons (cleverly disguised as games or toys) may be just as valuable; teaching not only science concepts but also fostering skills kids will need when they head back to the classroom.
3) Games
You might think that hours spent at the game console are anything but mindless wasted time, but some of the newer games actually get kids moving more than a joystick and may actually improve their ability to focus and learn new skills. Games that engage the body while encouraging mental concentration not only help kids learn, they also prepare younger students to sit still for lessons later.
4) Cooking
To enjoy the fruits of their culinary labors, kids must first master reading, measuring and following directions -- lessons that are much easier to swallow when they come in the form of a tasty dish they’ve made themselves. It may take patience on the part of parents who see cooking as another household chore to complete as quickly as possible, but taking time actually forces us to slow down and remember there’s joy to be found in the kitchen when you have someone to share the work.
