Hanna Lalonde If Spring Break is coming up for your family, you’re likely already brainstorming some fun learning activities for your kids! It’s always great to have an accessible list of activities to try out, especially when you don’t have any plans. Our team has come up with a list of fun learning activities for kids that will make for an awesome Spring Break!
Have a Backyard Treasure Hunt
Life Over C’s shares an awesome blog post about creating a backyard treasure hunt with her little one! With this fun activity, you can work with your child to draw a unique map of your backyard or green space. From there, you and your child can run around outside and identify all of the features that you marked out on your map. Parents can even hide “hidden treasure” – like a fun toy or game – for their child to discover!
Have your Child Write a Short Story
Gather paper, pencil crayons, and markers for your child and encourage them to write their own short story. You can fold the paper to look like pages, or even buy a small notebook for your child to draw in. This is a great way to encourage your child to practice their writing skills, while also exercising their creativity!
Download the Roam Game
The Roam Game was designed to help children develop their critical thinking skills, while also making learning fun! Roam is a safe and advertisement-free game that helps kids meet important learning objectives. Moreover, when children learn, parents earn! Each time your child meets a learning objective on Roam, you will receive exclusive coupons codes to your email that you can use at our online stores.
Play an Educational Board Game
Try playing a fun, educational board game with your child like Junior Scrabble. Word games are an awesome way to practice spelling with your little one. Board games are a wonderful way to spend time together as a family, while also working on your child’s vocabulary skills.
Visit your Local Library
Have you checked out your town’s library recently? Bring your child to your local library to pick out a few books to read. This is an awesome way to encourage your child to develop a love for reading. For more book recommendations, check out these 6 Books Your Child Should Read Before Kindergarten.
