The Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning is offering daily tips and learning tools for parents to help prevent “summer brain drain.”

Research shows when children are out of school for the summer, there can be a regression in skills if they’re not engaged in a variety of learning activities. A worst-case scenario can include a child losing the equivalent of one to three months’ worth of learning over the summer, according to state officials.

To help combat this "summer brain drain," state officials are offering the daily tips — called DIY Summer — which will be posted each day to the state's early care and learning (DECAL) Facebook and Twitter pages.
