What others are saying about this packet:

“My 9-year-old wouldn’t put down the search-a-word.”

“My kids loved the summer activity packet! My twin 5-year-olds and I had fun with the story sequence about Cindy and her mom, my 9-year-old wouldn’t put down the search-a-word, and even my 13-year-old enjoyed the crossword puzzles. I can’t wait for us to work through more of the activities.”

Melanie Campbell // Educating Campbells

“$4 is an amazing price for what we got!”

“We love the packet! We travel a lot over the summer, but as a former teacher I want to limit the summer learning loss as much as possible. This packet is great! My son loved the word searches and I loved that they kept him occupied but also kept his brain working. He is 6 and going into first grade, so the letter recognition in the word searches was great. We also loved the story starters. Reinforcing reading, writing and comprehension will be easy with those!

$4 is an amazing price for what we got! Plenty of activities that kept him occupied, thinking, and learning, but also having fun without seeming “workbookish”.
