If you are anything like me, you strive to limit the amount of digital influence your children have in their lives. I also try, and sometimes in vain, to find digital influences that are at least educational in nature so that when I do allow screen time, I can at least feel better about it. Whether you are heading out on a long car trip for vacation or running your homeschool through the summer, you will find great information here. This roundup is super helpful, and let's face it, as much as I don't want to admit it, the school year will be sneaking up on us soon!
Since kiddos might be spending some extra time on the computer and tablet in the summertime, I want to make sure that they're still learning. That's where Educents' list of the Top 101 Educational Websites and Apps of 2016 has been a lifesaver! This incredible round-up of educational websites, apps, online curriculum, and digital learning resources is your go-to guide for continued summer learning and the new academic year. You can browse the guide by subject to find the perfect resources for your kids to brush up on certain skills or learn something new! There are literally 101 great options to choose from. Here are a few that stand out to me: 1.
