As the holidays draw closer, parents often ask how they can keep their children entertained over the holidays. While screens can be an easy distraction, there are many other ways to keep children entertained and learning at the same time.
Here at readilearn we have some suggestions and handouts you can distribute to parents, or you could suggest they download the handouts for themselves.
You can find most of them in the Classroom Management — For Parents collection. They are all free resources and suggest ways of increasing the learning in everyday situations, mostly by being aware of the opportunities that arise incidentally throughout the day.
