MLC's Summer of Fun

Keep your brain and body active all summer long with interesting videos, hands-on activities, and interactive events.

Learning and Fun all Summer Long!

Keep students engaged in learning over the summer. The Michigan Learning Channel’s 8-week summer program has everything kids need to continue building their brains and learning key concepts that will help them succeed in school. From preschool to 6th Grade, each grade has 2-3 hours of video lessons per week, plus a fun and interactive activity book. Local events and special broadcasts around our 8 weekly themes help pique kids’ interest. All programs are available on broadcast television and on-demand online.

For detailed programming information, see the Summer Schedule.
