Activity List
• Video chat relatives for story time.
• Paint rocks. Kids can paint characters on them and tell stories with them afterwards.
• Garden. Give kids a small planting area to care for as they learn responsibility.
• Create an obstacle course of things you have around the house. Pool noodles offer a lot of options.
• Build, decorate, and then race paper airplanes.
• Encourage creativity. Have kids write stories, make comics, act them out with handmade costumes of construction paper. Being stuck at home is the best time to encourage a new hobby.
