PBS KIDS: Tuesday #gno Twitter Party on Summer Learning
Fearing the “I’m bored” phrase during the summer months? With summer break right around the corner, you might be brainstorming and planning ways to keep the kids entertained until they go back to school in the fall. Instead of using TV and movies as “babysitters” for your kids, turn to reading to keep the kids entertained. Summer is for plenty of outdoor play and lots of reading in the shade!
The iVillage + PBS KIDS Summer Reading Community Challenge is designed to keep kids reading (and being read to) all summer long, which will help keep their little minds sharp and engaged throughout the summer months. Sure, it's natural for kids to forget some of what they’ve learned in school, but this challenge is aimed at preventing just that — 'summer slide.' The challenge will include:
- Daily assignment emails chock full of ideas for you and your kids
- Expert coaching from Angela Santomero, Creator and Executive Producer of Super Why
- 24/7 support in the iVillage and PBS KIDS community
- Book suggestions for kids of all ages
Not only that, the challenge will also provide guest coaches, interviews, free downloads of PBS KIDS shows, and a chance to win daily prizes. What’s not to love? The challenge begins on June 6, 2011 and there’s still time to sign up! Just visit The iVillage + PBS KIDS Summer Reading Community Challenge for more information.
