Summer Brain Drain occurs when students are away from the structured learning environment of a classroom and lose the months of knowledge they gained during the school year because they are not regularly exercising their brains. According to research from the Center for Summer Learning at Johns Hopkins University, students typically lose one to two months of reading and math skills during the summer break. But there are many things parents can do to help keep children’s minds active during the summer months and avoid these setbacks.
One of the things parents can do for their kids during the summer is stimulate them with educational type games. In the InnoTab2, there's so many different ways you can let your child learn and have fun at the same time!
