Can you hear it...the collective sigh of relief from school kids as the summer vacation is just about here?! But parents, teachers and caregivers know that it's critical to keep the learning going outside the classroom. We have some unique and innovative ways to keep your kids engaged - and the great part is that they won't even realize they are learning! Our guests include Martha Razor, Early Childhood Specialist with WHRO, Terrance Afer-Anderson, CEO of StageNorfolk, Inc., and Dr. Lisa Moore, Director of the STEM Summer Camp for Girls. We'll also tell you about a woman on a mission to see that no child goes hungry this summer. It's all on the next Another View, Thursday, June 11 at 9 on WHRO-TV, 15.1.
