After three months of not seeing any of her peer group, I'm trying to work out a way for my DD (6) to have a garden playdate with her friend, but observing the 2 metre distancing, which is obviously tricky with small children. I think it has more chance of working if we have an activity organised, but I'm struggling to think of what they could do that doesn't involve double handling bits of equipment. Maybe swingball if we wipe down the bats and ball. My other idea was some sort of washing basket ball toss if I dunk a load of ball pond balls in Dettol before and after. The garden isn't huge and we have a swing set that takes up most of it, so we will have to work round that.
I know many people will think we should just get on with it and let them mix, but I am medically vulnerable (not shielding) so we have been being ultra careful so far and would like to continue as much as possible.
If anyone has any creative ideas I would really appreciate it if you would share them with me. Many thanks.
