What is a virtual playdate you ask? Well, it’s a way that your kid can have some fun activities with their friends through video chat! Set up the webcam and get them to pick an activity from the printable playdate idea and watch their imagination come alive!
Now here is a creative idea. And it is also a great way to get your kids washing their hands more often! This playdough soap is made from the same Castille soap that you use to wash your hands but feels like squishy play dough. Try this fun activity

Introduce your child to the old school art of weaving! This circle weaving technique is a great way to start learning and could get them busy for quite some time. Have fun choosing colors of yarn and making your own loom. In the end, you will have a great teapot trivet. Try this fun activity
Get your kids involved in the creation of their ooey-gooey mermaid slime. It’s just as much fun making it as it is playing with it! I don’t think I know anyone who doesn’t like playing with slime. It’s way too much fun. I especially love this mermaid-theme sparkly slime – so fun!
Just because your kids aren’t in school doesn’t mean they should stop learning – teach them at home. The best way to learn is while having fun so these homemade alphabet wood slices will make spelling class a blast.
Playing with stamps is a fun activity for kids and grown-ups, but actually designing and making your own stamps is a whole other ball game. Get your kids to help you design their very own stamps that they can use over and over again. Whether it’s a basketball, a ballet slipper or whatever their creative minds can come up with!
Maybe your kids will be more likely to help you hang up the laundry if they think they are playing a game? Minions are a pretty big thing these days. I’m sure your kids will have fun playing with their little minion clothespin friends! Try this fun activity
Teach your kids about the constellations on this cool and interactive geoboard. A great way to pass the time while also learning. I love the idea of fun activities for kids that also inspire learning indirectly. Productive and entertaining games to keep you and your kids entertained.
When you are really at a loss of what to do grab a popsicle stick from the boredom buster jar.
