The summer slide, also called summer brain drain or summer learning loss, is when kids lose academic progress while they aren't in school.
Kids can lose up to two months of the math they've learned over the summer, with gaps being biggest in math and literacy.
Many kids are at an academic disadvantage due to the COVID-19 pandemic, so parents want to prevent summer learning loss without making it feel like school.
Summer should be an opportunity for kids to learn, enjoy themselves, and thrive, rather than just a 'slump' or 'brain drain.'
