The Summer Before Kindergarten
Create a summer of memories and inspire a lifelong love of learning
The summer before Kindergarten can be an exciting and nerve-racking time. We get it!
We are teachers and parents of young children.
The question we hear most is, “How do I prepare my child for Kindergarten?”
This book is an introduction of numbers, letters, and Kindergarten readiness skills. It includes short, fun, and hands-on learning experiences for parents to share with their child the summer before Kindergarten. These activities provide a recipe for Kindergarten success.
