With the summer holidays looming and stressed mothers appearing on threads everywhere, how about we suggest activities here to keep our little darlings entertained? Any that involve 15 minutes of "feet up" time for the mother are eslecially welcome!
Remember to include ages when making your suggestion.
Water Painting
Age : Pretty much any
Ingredients : One sunny patio, a bowl or water and a paint brush
Method : Hand ingredients to child and let them paint the patio with water. Sit back with an icy glass of Pimms and occasionally make appreciative comments. The pictures dry eventually, as does your child. Always watch your child if they're playing with water though.
