This section contains ways to keep kids and teens entertained and engaged with learning in formal and informal ways. Activities are of different lengths so choose the ones that will work best for your situation.
Try this!
Start with the Schedule Your Day page to make sure you don't experience any 'dead' time when patience can be stretched and tempers fraught.
Or this!
Is trouble brewing and you can see bickering / whining on the horizon? Grab a minute-to-win-it activity to diffuse and distract.
Or this!
Want kids using their hands and brains for a bit longer so you can get on with something else? Try a Rube Goldberg machine.
Or this!
Assign an older child to set up and run activities for their younger siblings too!
Hopefully you'll find something whatever the age of your child. Remember to contribute your ideas here.
