Easter crafts and learning
To be honest we have just been having fun since well a week before the schools closed as I decided to keep them both off , we have been doing sand play, paint, play dough, watching movies, reading books, doctors kit, dolls duplo, drawing and waterbeads and just spending time together as a family <3 I am really enjoying this special time with my children as I'm normally at work a3<3
This is such a lovely and thoughtful a gesture @fivelittledoves, we have never had Aqua beads before but I'm sure my children would really love this set and have hours of fun playing.
Showing kindness and care, costs nothing, but generates a warmth and a ‘feel good’ factor
