If you are looking to prevent “summer slide” with workbooks targeting kids between kindergarten and 6th grade, check out the new Summer Brain Quest series! It’s an exciting extension of the beloved and bestselling Brain Quest brand!
Each workbook is structured like a game and is created in consultation with award-winning teachers. It has a summer progress map, with destinations on the map marking progress in the book in the form of quests and achievements. Mark off each quest with a sticker as it is completed. The quests cover all the different academic subjects for that grade!
The workbooks are in full color with side boxes called “Brain Boxes” that give more detailed information. There’s also attractive illustrations on each page to draw in the reader. You can write in the workbook, but it’s not an overwhelming amount of questions.
This is a really fun summer workbooks series that kids will actually enjoy doing!
I’m giving away an ENTIRE Set of Summer Brain Quest workbooks (grades K-6)! See below to enter the Rafflecopter to win.
My 6th grade son and I have been using Big Fat Notebooks all year. He’s had a concussion and has missed quite a bit of school. It’s been helpful to whip out Big Fat Notebooks to review material for his science class. He likes how the information is presented with concise summaries and fun illustrations. I like how it’s comprehensive and a great review for tests.
Big Fat Notebooks are from the same brains that created Brain Quest! I love how the Summer Brain Quest Workbooks are the perfect study-buddy for all ages.

Wonderful give away! These books will help to develop the awareness of my son.
Thanks for the chance. Have a nice day!
Thanks so much for entering John!
What a great series! I love that they cover all of the topics in school. I make it a point to read at least twenty minutes a day with my kids during the summer to prevent the summer slide. I also make easy games out on the driveway with letters and numbers using sidewalk chalk.
I love your ideas Selena! Thanks for sharing!
These look really cool! I wish I had thought of them when I was Easter basket shopping.
Thanks so much Olivia!
I usually rely on activity books and worksheets.
Hi Vinitha,
I like activity books too!
To prevent the dreaded Summer slide, we make regular visits to the library and participate in reading challenges. Math is always an area we follow behind, maybe because I am not math inclined. This summer I’m planing on having tutoring lessons for my new 5th grader.
Hi Mariana,
Your summer plan sounds great!
We do workbooks and print-outs we find online but I haven’t tried this brand yet!
Hi Kathy,
I’m impressed with this new series!
Kids should either just do what they want in the summer or be made to go to summer school. The U.S. would be much better if school was just a year-round thing.
Hi John,
I like to do a little summer learning; no more than 10 minutes a few times a week plus reading.
We read, do worksheets- I print them from Pinterest, we make crafts and do science projects (like make our own slime) and also play board games like monopoly to practice math.
Hi Tiffany,
My kids love doing science projects at home too!
We would always do fun workbooks during the summer and as a reward we’d visit the park.
Hi Renee,
I like your plan. Mine is similar for my kids!
We stay unplugged unless there is a good reason to use technology, travel, spend time outside, read together, and learn new things together. I think my kids go back to school smarter every fall as a result!
Hi MaryAnne,
I love the outings that you do with your kids outside, and you have the best projects at home with the kids! I loved your sewing your drawing one!
Everyday we read at least one book a day and do some arts and crafts
Hi Olga,
I love your plan!
We participate in every summer reading program possible!!
Hi Nancy,
Yay for summer reading programs!!!
It’s great to investigate the world outside and then tie that in to reading topics inside!
Hi Alyssa,
I love your way of thinking and connecting!
As a youth services librarian my task is to provide space and materials for children to explore. I try to plan programs that allow access to new ideas and also room for creativity. Nourishing curiosity and feeding a love of learning is the mission.
Hi Lisa,
I’m so glad your library focuses on that! What a great mission!
We read everyday and make sure we limit tv time.
Hi Beth,
Thanks for entering!
I spend a lot of time talking to them and working with them on their skills
Hi D.,
I think that is a great way to help kids develop.
We keep up with reading and writing in journals.
Hi Lauren,
That’s my parenting fantasy — having my kids keep writing journals — but it’s never happened. I love that your kids keep journals!
take them for swimming classes and to the library ..
Hi Priya,
That’s a great combo. That was my childhood summers — swimming lessons five days a week and a weekly trip to the library!
We take them to the library and museum often.
Hi Cheryl,
Love the museum outings! What a great idea! I never do that enough with my kids.
I’ve found that a chore chart is the best way. My kids have a few things they have to do before we do anything else and it keeps them motivated the whole summer. They can earn rewards and earn extra money.
Hi Dani,
Love the chore chart idea!
We do the Summer reading program at our local library.
Hi Angela,
I used to do that as a kid. I would earn a guppy fish for every ten books I read. The librarian would scoop out the one I picked into a plastic bag. Eventually my guppies reproduced. I love summer library reading programs but I’m pretty sure no one does fish! 🙂
We like to play certain games to help keep him sharp and he loves to read non-fiction so that helps as well.
Love your ideas Stephanie! Thanks for entering!
We already are reading a book! 🙂
Yay! Excellent Edye! Thanks for entering!
We participate in summer reading programs usually at the public library and barnes and noble and require a book to be read every day. I normally print out printables to practice math and writing skills as well. These workbooks look a lot different then the workbooks out there.
Hi Sonia,
What great ideas. Yes, I like this new series and the approach a lot!
