Summer Stride Series
Hosted by Begin

The Summer Stride Series is a free, four-part virtual event designed to support families with young children through the unique challenges—and opportunities—of the summer months. Taking place monthly from May through August, the series helps parents reframe the anxiety around the "summer slide" into a season of meaningful "stride." Each 60-minute session features experts, educators and parents from Begin and beyond, offering research-backed insights and practical tools on topics like playful learning, screen time balance, emotional resilience, and back-to-school transitions. Families will walk away with tangible resources, such as screen time plans, routines, and activity guides, that promote joyful, developmentally rich summer experiences.
Begin's Learning Team is hosting the kickoff session on Wednesday, 5/28 at 5pm PT / 8pm ET, and we’re excited to bring you an amazing lineup of educators, experts, and parents for the rest of the series!
