It can be hard getting back into the swing of homework and school projects after a long break. And with all of that, plus the endless “Why??” questions, learning something new is all you feel like your child is doing these days! But here’s the good news: you don’t have to give your child all the answers! In fact, it’s better if you take a break and have them discover the answers for themselves. Next time your child asks how a TV works or what the moon is really made of, encourage them to research the answer online or in a book at your local library and report back to you about what they discovered.

That's why this month we're talking about knowledge: learning something new so you can be better at whatever you do. Below you'll discover what we're talking about each week, and you'll also see a few downloadable resources that you can use to help continue the conversation at home with your kids. We hope you find this helpful!
