Fun Ideas for Learning After School with Kids

Each week we love featuring the top activities for School Ages in our After School Linky Party. It’s official, many of us are back in school or will start next week, are you ready?  

Here’s a fun way to plan for After School Fun with our top most clicked activities from the After School Party this summer.  

We were thrilled each week this summer we had bloggers come and share their activities for kids as part of our #smartsummer party through the After School Party.  We’d love to continue with you throughout the school year sharing ways to bring learning into your home.  

We use the hashtag #learningafterschool to share fun ideas each week to help give you ideas for what to do with your child at home.  You can plan out your week with your own Lesson Plan, click here to print.
