Here is a clear, corrected version of the sentence for a 7-year-old:

Original: In summer, Arctic foxes are brown to blend with the rocky soil.

Corrected: In summer, Arctic foxes are brown to blend with the rocky soil.

Note: The original sentence is almost correct. If you want to make the purpose even clearer, you could say:

  • In summer, Arctic foxes are brown to blend with the rocky soil.
  • In summer, Arctic foxes turn brown to blend in with the rocky soil.

Tips for checking grammar:

  • Make sure the subject (Arctic foxes) and the verb (are) agree in number.
  • Use "to blend" to explain why they are brown.
  • Use "in" with "blend in with" when you want to say something fits in with its surroundings.
