Parenting is hard, here are some activities we've found to help keep your little ones engaged and entertained:⠀
- Scavenger hunt: create a page of photos of items that you have around the house and send your kids off to tick off their finds. Ensure you have lots of items on the list!⠀
- Balloon volleyball: use a string and tape to the walls to create a net, blow up a balloon and play volleyball! If there's not enough space, teach them how to play sitting volleyball! Same rules, but both those cheeks need to stay on the ground at all times! ⠀
- Make-your-own-mural: choose a wall that your kids can reach and cover it with paper. Provide the kids with crayons and let them draw to their heart's content (and yes, it's true! Ninja Turtles ARE named after famous artists).⠀
- Give them an "important" task: if it's drawing a picture for grandma or building a fort for daddy, if you stress importance, they should be okay working on it independently!
