There are endless learning opportunities that you can take advantage of over the summer!

Read for joy! Books, websites, blogs, comics, podcasts, graphic novels... the reading choices are endless.

Try non video games... puzzles (sudoku, crossword, cardboard) getting messy outside (be it a garden, a plant pot), artwork, hiking, creating in the kitchen, Lego, card games, writing, build/create something, build a fort, and of course...clean your room!
