Happy New Year to you and yours! I hope you had a restful Christmas break and are ready for some more after school activities and link ups!
What is the After School Link Up?
You might think by the title that the After School Link Up is only for parents of kids who go to school, but it’s WAY more! The ideas shared each week at the After School Link Up can be used or adapted for classroom teachers, tutors, or parents who homeschool. There’s a lot of creative ideas shared and we want you to take them and use them, not only for the activities, but for the encouragement they provide. We encourage you to link up ideas for Kindergarten through 5th grades and save your preschool posts for other link ups.
After School Activities Round-Ups
Today, the After School Team, composed of 7 bloggers, is doing something special to bring in the new year. We have each written a round up post, featuring after school activities you can do with your child to continue the learning from their school day. Here they are for you to enjoy…and then don’t forget to link up your own at the end! 🙂
