- Visit the library, and get them to pick out there very own book to read before going to bed.
- let them help
you do the washing, let them learn between colours and whites.and then put it in the machine.my daughter loves helping me do this.
- get her to help with the house work, lillian just walks around with a damp cloth, its so cute when she trys to clean a cubaord door.
- if the rain stops outside, get there gumboots on and go explore all the puddles.
