It's inevitable! Kids are going to need a little extra practice on a subject or are going to get sick and have to take a day or two off school. Either way, I don't want my kids to spend their days playing random games on their electronic devices and watching YouTube videos. I want to help them to keep learning.
So my friend, Jennifer Hill, Macaroni KID publisher for Fremont, Calif., came up with a list of educational resources for kids of all ages that can be used at home. Some of the websites have awesome printable worksheets and educational games!
