Materials

  • A picture to cut up (e.g. greeting card, calendar picture, photo, magazine page or draw your own)

  • Pencil

  • Scissors

Steps

  1. Choose a picture.

  2. On the back of the picture, draw lines to show the puzzle pieces.

  3. Cut along the lines.

  4. Put the puzzle back together.

Balloon Play

Blow up a balloon to play with. You may even like to use a permanent marker to draw a face on it.

Possible Challenges

  • Don't let the balloon touch the floor! Count how many times you can tap it up without it touching the ground.

  • Tap the balloon to a family member back and forth.

  • Keep 2 balloons up in the air at once.

  • Lie on the floor and keep the balloon up with your feet.

  • Jump around holding the balloon between your knees.

Balloon Experiments

Or you might want to try some of these experiments using balloons. For example, rub the balloon on your hair then try to get it to stick to something.

Recipe for the week

A little something you can do with your family. I made these with my family earlier this year, they are super easy and a lot of fun!


Please send any photos of your recipe (or anything else you cook together) to the school.
