Let Grow Summer Experience Kit! DIY Independence for Kids Kindergarten - Grade 8

Posted on May 27, 2025

Welcome to The Let Grow Summer Experience!

Summer is the perfect season for spreading those independence wings. With school out and sunshine in, kids have the time and space to try doing more on their own—more exploration, more self-discovery, more fun! Whether it’s a solo trip to the ice cream truck, organizing a neighborhood game, or pet sitting for the first time, these small adventures build big confidence.

Dive into these free resources to spark a Summer of Independence. 

This kit gives you and your kids a whole lot of things they can start doing this summer. Some things will seem too simple. Others, too hard. Everything depends on your kids’ interests, age, abilities, and neighborhood. So just discuss together what activities they’ll do on their own (or with a friend) without you helping or supervising. Maybe without you even tracking or texting them!

The point is to stretch the boundaries of childhood just a little bit. When kids do something new on their own, both generations get a burst of confidence. Worry gets replaced by pride and joy.

It can be hard to let go, so this kit provides a little push. Be prepared for a lot of growth and the joy of seeing your child thrive!
