FIVE Tips To Keep Your Host Kids Busy This Winter Holidays!

 

It’s a jolly season, and we are all for it!!

 

 

 

We all know that children should be stimulated to grow and become successful human beings.

 

 

But, on the other side, we also know that it may seem like a daunting task to keep the lovelies entertained – especially during the winter holidays.

 

 

Do Not Fear When CAP Is Near…

 

 

Below Are Five Fun And Unique Ways To Keep Your Host Kids Entertained:

 

Cooking and Baking:

 

 

Plan a cooking or baking day.

 

Involve the kids in the process from the beginning — let them choose from a selection of recipes that you have ingredients for.

 

If your host kiddie can read, get them to read from the recipe book.

 

Step by step, help them to work through the instructions. Try to avoid the temptation of doing it yourself.

 

Go Camping:

 

 

Build a tent indoors with blankets and sheets.

 

Once the tent is up, give them a torch and a picnic to take with them.

 

We guarantee you won’t see them for hours!

 

 

Have a Treasure Hunt:

 

 

 

Make a treasure map with clues to find some treasure you have hidden somewhere in the house.

 

It doesn’t have to be expensive or big!!

 

 

Visit The Library:

 

 

Use your local library regularly.

In most libraries you can get more than books; you can get movies and music.

 

Many public libraries have holiday events for kids. Join their newsletter to stay up to date with the festive calendar & join in on the fun!

 

Make a day out of it.

 

Do some reading while you’re there instead of getting some books and heading home.

 

 

Give your host kiddies a love of books — it is one of the best gifts you can give them.

 

 

Get Into Jewellery Making:

 

 

Go to a bead shop and stock up on beads, wire and clasps, and get busy making your own jewellery.

This activity can be done with the smallest of children, just be sure to get appropriate bead sizes for different age groups.

 

The children will be so proud to wear the jewellery that they have made.

 

 

Holidays can be a great time to bond with your host children, and maybe even let your own inner

child come out to play.

 

 

Breathe, Relax And Enjoy!
