Hi mums,
I’ve been trying different paper activities with kids recently and I’m curious…
What kind of activities do your children actually enjoy?
Coloring? Puzzles? Cutting & sticking? Or something more creative?
I feel like sometimes simple activities work better than complicated ones 😅
Would love to hear what really keeps your kids engaged!

What age?
3 year old loves scribbling and messing with the pritt stick
6 year old drawing random things and also cutting shapes etc
Mix it up with some random leaflets they can snip up
Can't go far wrong with a blank sheet of paper and scissors pritt strick and coloured pencils.

Puzzle books or plain paper to play boxes, noughts and crosses and hangman were favourites with mine

Different things at different ages.
Also different situations - there are things you might do at home that you can't really take with you to a hospital appointment, or a long train journey.
