Making Learning Fun With Totes Remote

As parents, we are always looking for ways to keep kids engaged while learning Especially during the summer. If you are like me then you are looking for that one way to keep them engaged and off devices. 

Recently I was able to try Totes Remote and I am so happy I did. What is Totes Remote? They are a portable and most importantly fun way to get kids to learn. The small personalized totes for pre k up to 3rd grade include 10 games and game pieces. 

Toes Remote was started by local mom Shauna Galante who works with teachers to gather feedback to help students get the most out of the learning. 

My soon to be a 1st grader loved his personalized bag as soon as he saw it and when he heard we had new fun ”games” to play, he was all in. After dinner, we sat down to try the activities and when we finished one he wanted to try another. He was engaged, loved the colors and fun shapes of the game pieces. The only reason I got him to stop was because it was bedtime But the next morning, he was right back at it. 

The games helped reinforce what he had learned in kindergarten and were a great refresher to get ready for 1st grade. The best part was the tote they come in making it easy to take them with us anywhere. If you have a road trip coming up, Totes Remote will help keep you little ones busy in the car.
