Summer vacation is upon us...only a few weeks left!  It is an exciting time but many parents worry about their children losing what they have learned over the 2 month break.  I have put together a list of websites which I find useful for ideas to keep your child's mind actively engaged throughout the break.  I hope you find the links helpful too!
