Virtual And Fun Learning Activities For All Grade Kids

In 2009 Meta-analysis of the U.S., The Department of Education analyzed 51 online learning studies and found that students studying in an online class performed better on average than students receiving face-to-face training for the same subject.

With the outspread of COVID19, everything halted. Schools were closed, outdoor activities such as sports, dance classes, and children’s field trips are halted. This opened us to a new possibility;  i.e, virtual classes and activities. And we realized that this is also an option through which we can keep our kids occupied.  Some great fun learning virtual activities for kids can make your children happy and boost creativity in them.

Here are some interesting virtual and fun activities for kids that are stepping up to the plate with daily fun and educational activities for the family. So whether you are a wonderful working or stay-at-home mom, enjoy this virtual learning fun without feeling guilty.

All unanswered questions of your little space explorers are here, Teachable Moments, as they come up with incredible investigations of the ongoing discoveries about space and the universe. There is a range of learning activities and lessons that are apt for grades K-12.

Space Racers is another animated fun learning about the solar system, which offers games, fun science-based lessons, and space-theme-based educational activities that parents, children, and family members of all ages can explore together.

Children of any age love animals. Some interesting virtual videos from different zoos and aquariums— San Diego Zoo have live cams of their wonders —like the adorable koalas, pandas, polar bears, elephants condors, koalas, or the giraffes. Another one is Cincinnati Zoo. I love Fiona, the floating hippo. They stream amazing animals each day on Facebook Live. You can also check out the giant pandas and naked mole-rats at the National Zoo on their webcams.

If you have a love for aquatic animals, then Monterey Bay Aquarium lets you peep in on sharks, jellyfish, otters, and more, while at the National Aquarium, you can view coral reefs and reef sharks.

Take Screen Time Break with Audiobooks

Audiobooks are presentations of books recorded and accessed via an MP3 file, iTunes, Dvd, and Google Play Store.

Audiobooks are significant when children need a screen-time break. The audiobook platform Audible offers a wide range of books. Some of my favorites include “Winnie-the-Pooh,” “Best Moral Tales and Stories for Kids,” “Kid Scientists,” and “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.

When children listen to audiobooks, they learn the right pace and intonation of voice and the correct pronunciation.
