Final Thoughts
The best thing about spring is the improving weather and the ability to get back outside, but for those days when the weather isn’t reliable, or when you just need a little bit of quiet time, activity sheets are a great way to wind down whilst still being active. Bonus – it may give you the opportunity for a HOT cup of tea.
If you are looking for other screen-free activities…
As the weather is in spring is gradually improving and nature slowly comes back to life, why not try a nature scavenger hunt to encourage your kids to go out. I have created a scavenger hunt with 3 difficulty levels so even older children can join in.
If you are planning a road trip, why not check out my Road Trip Activity pack to keep little ones occupied on longer journeys?
And if colouring is the thing that keeps your children entertained for longer periods, I highly recommend trying out making your own Mandalas and colouring them in afterwards. It kept my children occupied for hours!
