<\/a><\/p>\nThere are only a few days to go now until we all head back to school now (who else can’t wait?!?), so it is time to start thinking about a new set of after school activities. We also have a lot of hanging around to do in the car this school year in between my 3 school pick up times (12.30, 1.30 and 2.30!) so I have been making up little busy bags and boxes to bring out along with us to help pass the time.<\/p>\n
Last week on the Frugal Family Linky there were lots of ideas suitable for After School Activities including:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Cats Small World Play from Peakle Pie<\/a> – Creating small worlds in a lovely calming activity to sit down to after a long day in school.<\/li>\n
- Painting with Big Wheels from Hands on:as we grow<\/a> – Painting always goes down well after school as well.<\/li>\n
- Make a kite from P is for Preschooler<\/a>– whilst the weather is still good, get the kids outside for a few more activities.<\/li>\n
- Nature Worm Study from There’s Just One Mommy <\/a>– my kids are fascinated by anything to do with insects<\/li>\n
- Sensory Fun with Buttercup Playdough from Peakle Pie<\/a> – rolling and shaping play dough is a great way to work out those post school day frustrations.<\/li>\n
- Tape Resist Sponge Painting from Crafty Kids at Home<\/a> – why not try this new twist on Sponge Painting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
