The Ultimate Resource of Summer Reading and Writing Activities

All the Summer Reading and Writing Activities You’ll Ever Need!

You sure can tell from last week’s Weekly Kids Co-Op Link Party that Summer is in full swing for most of our participants!  And the creative moms and bloggers linked up tons of reading and writing activities to keep the kids busy and learning throughout the Summer.  I thought it’d be helpful to compile all of their awesome ideas into one giant resource for Summer reading and writing activities.  Here goes…
