Keep reading this summer

The summer holidays are a great time for children to rest, relax and recharge. It’s also a wonderful opportunity to spark creativity and enjoy meaningful moments together as a family.

Reading and storytelling are simple yet powerful ways to help children explore their imagination, build confidence and express themselves. They support wellbeing, encourage communication and create lasting memories.

In this resource, you will find three fun and engaging activities designed to help parents and carers of primary-age children support their child’s love of reading while helping them feel happy and confident over the summer.

  • Story bag activity
  • Book picnic activity
  • Gratitude jar activity

All activities can be enjoyed in any language. Simply choose the one that feels most natural for each child and enjoy the experience together.
