We have been working on some fun projects this week that have really helped make our days fun and light. I’ve compiled a list of all the activities we have been doing to keep us busy and learning! These options are great for boys and girls of all ages to get the wiggles out and some fun learning options for keeping our new homeschool life fresh.
Car wash- a little sunshine, water fight and possibility of payment for the job worked magic)
Online dance classes for excercise ( our dance studio does lots but we also LOVE Go Noodle- all ages)
Cooking class- pick a recipe from our favorite cook books( our faves are Giada at Home for weeknight dinners, Magnolia Table for breakfast treats and easy lunch ideas, What’s Gaby Cooking for delish everything especially easy snacks and our newest favorite Gather at Home) and make it or subscribe to the Food Network for endless options. I’ve also been teaching them my favorite family recipes.
Scrapbook-we printed a bunch off of instagram and our personal file and the girls kept busy for hours making and decorating pages for their scrapbooks
Imagineering in a box- Disney has this incredible program that kids can learn all the ins and outs behind the scenes of how to be an Imagineer at Disney. They learn how to build lands, characters and theme parks. Disney has also been rolling out fun illustrating classes on Instagram for those who love visiting Animator’s studio at Disneyland.
Virtual field trip- live tours and feed from Zoos, national parks, planetariums, volcano sites, landmarks around the world and tons of amazing museums
Draw So Cute- step by step instructions on how to create the cutest characters and doodles- great for all ages
Painting classes with Timree- Timree is the all time cutest and we love taking her summer workshops! She is offering live stream classes for all age levels.
Build a massive fort- ours has been up for a week now and the girls sleep in it every night. Granted we had to donate our dining chairs and all our blankets to the design but it’s pretty impressive.
Plant your garden- our garden has been on my wish list for years and now is the perfect time to get even a small one started. You can try herbs in small pots, strawberries and tomatoes in medium sized vessels or even go all out with box planters. We had a great time getting our starter seeds going. We loved seeing all the different types of seeds and then every day watching to see if any sprouts have popped through the soil.
