Remember when Friday nights were a big deal and a good chance to breathe a sigh of relief? You can slow the pace, pjs until noon and thank goodness no school run! phew! However, I don't know about you but since lockdown struck the weekdays are rolling into the weekends. So that got me thinking, how could I make the weekends feel a little bit more special? And as always when I need some suggestions I knew to ask our wonderful Facebook Community who are the BEST at sharing ideas! Below is a collection of their suggestions for making your weekends extra special in lockdown! Click the picture to download the ideas list and pin it to your fridge next...
Surely one of these will get the kids playing?!

Encourage your kids to take ownership of their play and choose what they would like to do!
Simply download and print this fun 'Pick Your Play' page, and stick it somewhere the children can reach. They will love tearing off the little tickets and deciding what to do.

Whatever the reason, we can sometimes find ourselves stuck indoors trying to entertain the kids. And that's when the reality of just how long the day really is when there's no choice to leave the house. Well I'm no fairy godmother and cannot promise miracles but I can certainly help when it comes to keeping the kids busy with limited resources...call it my super power!! And let's be honest, we've all sat and played with the kids for what feels like hours and it's only been 10 minutes or looking at the clock and the afternoons seem to drag. My best advice for this would be to break down your day into chunks of time, perhaps hourly slots. Be clear...
