to do while staying at home:
Like it or not, Stay at Home orders are
still in place through the month of May. Looking on the bright side
- you and your children are living through a very historical event

head to the kitchen with the kiddos and have some fun!
Looks like we'll be sheltering in place
for Mother's Day. While it is rainy and windy today how
about teaming up with the kiddos to make Mother's Day cards and
all occasion cards to send to local senior care facilities?
Check out these two designs to make with scissors and crayons
