[quote=Anonymous]For your days off, pick a theme each day or every couple days to make it feel festive. You have a ton of ideas here for Mexico Day. Pick another day or couple days and call it Space Day. Reserve timed tickets for the Air and Space museum. Make sure you do the walk on the national Mall sidewalk outdoors where you can see the relative size and distance of the planets. Get space books out from the library. Watch a space themed movie (if you have Disney Plus, Hidden Figures is great, but if you don't have a streaming service, the public library gives you access to free movies as well). Do space crafts (ideas online or at the library). Pick another couple days and be nature themed. Print a nature scavenger hunt from online. Do a hike, even if around your neighborhood. Go to the natural History museum. Go to the grocery store and count how many plants you can find not just in the produce aisle, but also on labels. Do leaf rubbings and other nature crafts. Use Google lens to identify plants and animals you see on a walk around your neighborhood. Etc etc. Adapt as needed if your kids are 2 or 17. Little kids will eat this stuff up. Older ones can get involved with the planning.[/quote]
