Summer Workbooks Recommendations – The ones we use at the best ever price!

I told my kids when school ended that they were all going to do 20 minutes of “school” with me each day during the summer.

They were delighted. 😉

I persevered, however, because really want to help them keep up their skills throughout the summer — and maybe even improve in some areas.

We have a lot of curriculum left from our homeschooling days, which I am pulling from. But I also wanted to get a couple of workbooks for my two elementary-aged kids, so they could work independently while I’m working with their siblings.

I recently ordered two from the Summer Bridge Activities Series and am really impressed.

Some of the skills are “too easy” – aka a quick review – and some of them are more of a stretch, but overall, the level seems spot on for my rising 2nd and 5th graders. I also love that the workbooks are divided into days, and each day has an objective and theme. Each day has an easy 10-20 minute “chunk” of work and the subject matter of the days builds sequentially.

If you’re looking for something similar for your kids this summer, I highly recommend them!

And if you do buy these, just know that as of 10:30 am on June 29th, they are at their lowest ever price – around $6.50 each (a 50% discount). There is no guarantee that the price will last, but pretty cool to get them for such a good value right now.
