Summer has arrived in many parts of the world, which means… school’s out! It’s a great time for families to relax and have fun — but parents might also need some ideas to keep their kids occupied and inspired to continue learning.
Google Play has plenty of features, apps and games to help. Here are five ways you can use Google Play to entertain your kids and keep their skills sharp all summer long.
1. Build reading comprehension skills
Everyone loves a good summer beach read. And now, with Google Play’s Reading practice, kids can pick out their own and independently improve their comprehension skills.
With a simple tap, young readers can learn new vocabulary, hear how to pronounce a word and find child-friendly definitions. And for early readers, a tracker will highlight text as it’s read out loud and offer the option to practice skipped or mispronounced words at the end of the page. Thousands of children’s books on Google Play Books have Reading practice enabled, available on the Google Play Books Android app and in Google Kids Space.
