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 😁

i just went though a heap of sites @CheerBear mostly thinking of you lol so i hope some of those ideas above will be helpful.


lounge room campouts and building fortes seems to still be very popular with kids 😄
