As the school year draws to a close, celebrate accomplishments and herald summer's approach.
• Wrapping Up the School Year
With the last day looming, help your child review progress and soften the blow of leaving buddies behind.
• Time to Dream Big
'Tis the season for kids to take stock of where they are, where they've been, and where they're going.
• Making a Move to a New School
If next year means a new school for your child, get tips from parents (and kids) who've recently made a switch.

Keep your child's brain busy with plenty of books this summer.
• Summer Reading Buzz
Buzz on over for book suggestions, celeb interviews, Buzz Boards so kids can (safely) chat about books, and more, including a chance to win a family trip to Walt Disney World®.
• Asian-American Stories
Observe Asian Pacific American Heritage Month with these resonant folktales, heartbreaking immigrant stories, and luscious emotional landscapes.

Extracurricular activities build skills and confidence. Use the summer months to put in extra practice or try out new passions.
• Get Moving
Physical activity is essential for growing kids, and there are dozens of sports to try.
• Make a Little Music
Being in a band, playing an instrument, or simply listening to music gives kids joy along with the freedom to express themselves.
• Serve the Community
Kids who reach out to others discover priceless life lessons.
