Mummy ideas: busy bags

Now I couldn't really decide what to write about after the last post - my mummy ideas

didn't seem exciting enough!

Whilst this isn't exciting it's absolutely necessary on days out or to kill boredom instead

of the dreaded PlayStation (which is my nemesis- the other day my son didn't even say

hello to me before asking if he could play….Obviously no!)

Have I mentioned how much I hate computers?! I'll do a separate post ranting about the

joys of technology to today's parents. My children use computers etc because in this day/age

they have too plus when I need an hour or so, they are very useful babysitters (anyone who says

they never use it for this reason is lying.) I know screen time is a contentious issue…for my

husband - it isn't using it as a babysitter if, as you do, you play with them! However,  to bust

boredom or when we go out these are good.

There is a different activity in every pencil case so there is still an element of choice. What I

like is you can change the activities as your children grow- I wish I'd had these when my little

ones were small. I always had ‘stuff’ but this idea is just better.

I also like that the children can decide to do different things. My little girl chose to colour, whilst

my little boy wanted to play top trumps. This was while we were in the house with no playing

on electric devices - yay!!!

This is what I have:
