Dallas, Texas 06/25/2015 (Financialstrend) – The educational entertainment company LeapFrog Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE:LF) has announced a new program for kids. The program marketed as “Summer Brain Gain” is offered as free and it is designed to help kids accelerate their learning in the summer as they get ready for school in fall.
The Program
This is a summer camp program. The goal of the program is to keep the kids engaged in various educational and fun activities. The duration of the program is eight weeks. The program is designed in such a way so as to ensure continuous learning of the kids in all the summer. The learning team from the company will send free printables, activities, videos, articles, and many tools to the parents that will help them ensure a fun and educational summer for their child.
So far, nearly 20,000 parents have signed up for the program. The educational content has a coloring page of United States map, tips on how to use math in the kitchen, a game on colors and numbers, creative arts projects and several attractive characters and songs.
The program is designed for children between the ages 3 to 8. It is scheduled to start on 22 June. Organizations like Honest Kids, CLIF Kid, Reading Is Fundamental, and Toys ‘R Us has joined the initiative.
Summer Brain Drain
The loss of learning during summer is a very important issue. It is observed that students lose much of their learning in the period of summer holidays and they have to make up for their loss as they try to catch up with their studies. Dr. Jody LeVos, who is the director of Learning Team at LeapFrog Enterprises, Inc (NYSE:LF), that the free resources are designed to reduce the summer brain drain and ensure an educational environment for the kids.
Let’s hope the summer brain gain program successfully addresses the issue. For now, LeapFrog Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE:LF) has taken good initiative in marketing.
