Calm!
It's only 30 days of vacation. Actually a little more.
For many families, January is the big test month of the year. Whether traveling or at home, the big challenge is to entertain the kids who are in full swing wanting to make the most of their few days of rest from school. After all, it is necessary right? The mind really needs this break to regain energy and return with everything for another school year.
But here for us: It is not easy to occupy this galley. We have to “roll around” to keep up with the pace and be able to be creative enough to guarantee the excitement. In the end, we will be finished but the mega happy child and this is the big reward.
So, to help you mom, dad, grandma, grandpa, uncle, aunt… you who have someone to entertain this vacation, we suggest some simple ideas to make these days fun:
BLADDER WAR
The bladder war is a game that can be played on summer days. Besides having a lot of fun, it helps to develop reflexes, attention and team spirit. The only objective of the game is to launch the largest number of water balloons on the members of the rival team. The team that is least hit wins.
PICNIC
To promote a picnic there is no rule, you can join family, friends from school or just you and your child. The cool thing is to involve the children in the preparation of delicacies or to have a picnic with more people, ask each one to bring a plate. The place can vary as in a park or even in the backyard.
CINEMINHA
How about taking the little ones to the cinema? The best premieres of children's films happen just between the end and the beginning of the year, making the little ones and their companions be enchanted by this magical universe. But you can also promote the movie at home and invite your child's school friends to enjoy a good movie accompanied by lots of popcorn.
SLEEPOVER
If there is a party that children will not forget, it is the Pajama party. Invite school friends, cousins and promote this little party that doesn't need a birthday to be held. Decide the space of the house, remove all the furniture and don't worry if there are enough beds for the guests – they will love to sleep in makeshift bags or huts.
COOKING DAY
They say that the favorite place in the house is the kitchen. So how about taking the kids over there? Promote a gourmet day with the little ones with simple recipes that require a lot of hands-on experience like cookies, cupcakes.
DAY OF GARDENING AND PLANTING
Not all children have the opportunity to have contact with nature, especially those who live in large cities. How about enjoying the holidays and teaching the little ones how to plant? It can be a small plant, a flower or even a bean on the cotton.
READING DAY AND STORY TELLING
Who doesn't like a good story right? Child loves it. Select some storybooks, comic books and have a day of reading. You can also give up books and tell your own stories and allow children to create their own.
ART WITH PAPER
Paper is a very simple and versatile material, which offers the handicraft universe a huge possibility of shapes, colors. In addition to having fun, making art out of paper promotes manual skills in children and stimulates their imagination.
