[quote=Anonymous]Learn to crochet. Make doll blankets or baby blankets. Make holiday gifts to save until then - great idea. Make Shutterfly books from old family photos for older relatives. Upload family vacation photos and set to music. See if first responders in your area can accept baked goods. Play board games. Keep a tally of birds in your backyard. Check Girl Scout website for activity ideas. Check miniature calendar website for inspiration and make similar projects. Give each child a sketchbook to fill. Learning skills like simple home repair, sewing on buttons, stuff like that - leads to increased self-esteem and confidence. Order a beginning coin collection or stamp album and look online for youth clubs. Lots of free time to let their minds wander. It’s good for kids to be bored sometimes. Learn to type.[/quote]
