📖 Give your child a summer filled with stories, progress, and confidence.

Summer is when reading often slips, and children can head back to school having lost ground.

The National Read-Aloud Challenge keeps your child reading aloud through the holidays in just a few minutes a day. and It’s free! Your child reads independently on Fonetti while you follow their progress and celebrate every milestone.

Sun, splashes, and a whole lot of mud! ☀️🐷💦

Day 3 on the Isle of Wight is in the books, and we spent the entire day at Tapnell Farm Park!
Honestly, we couldn't have asked for a better day.

We spent hours:
- Hanging out with amazing friends (the absolute best way to explore!).
- Visiting all the animals—the goats and wallabies were definitely crowd favorites. 🐐🔍

The absolute highlight of the day? Tackling the giant water obstacle course! Let's just say some of us were slightly more graceful than others, but we all ended up absolutely soaked and laughing until our stomachs hurt. 🌊🤪

If you need us, we’ll be drying off and probably sleeping for the next 12 hours. Tapnell Farm, you were brilliant!
