Re: School Holidays
Great idea @outlander!
One of our favourites is making a treasure hunt list and going for a walk to see if they can find things on their list. Things like something smooth, shiny, soft, light, blue, smelly etc. (That's what we'll probably end up doing this afternoon 🙂).
And cupcakes and lounge room camping. They always happen on our school holidays 😁
