Activities to Keep Kids Busy Indoors

 

by Kerrie McLouglin

I’m guilty of it, and I admit it. When I’m too overwhelmed or busy or tired to think up an activity to keep my kids busy while I cook dinner, fold laundry, do dishes or those other 1,000 things it takes to keep a household running, I turn on the TV. While that’s fine sometimes, I don’t want them watching TV all day during the summer! Here are some ideas I’ve found for keeping kids happy indoors when it’s too hot (or too cold, or just plain rainy) to send them outside.

Easy Kids Crafts: Spelling Practice with DIY Letter Puppets

Guest post from KidsActivitiesBlog.com

Spelling practice is getting harder and harder as spring has sprung, yet the grind of school continues.  The request to taking time to practice spelling words is being answered with whines and complaints. That is why I am so excited about today’s tutorial on how to make DIY Letter Puppets.  Kids Activities Blog knows if you can make spelling practice fun, it will happen!

Making the letter puppets is the first part of the adventure.  I enlisted the help of my 7 year old who was excited to participate once he saw paint and googly eyes were involved.
