Katy, from Hull, sent in this great idea. Let’s take a look at it…
What did you do?
We used masking tape to create a spiders web and put little paper flies inside it. I used blue-tac on the end of a metal skewer (pencil/stick would would too) for them to try and pick the flies up without getting stuck to the web!
It worked really well! Make sure the flies are small enough to go through the gaps in the web.
Tell the Housebound With Kids community a bit about yourself…
I’m Katy, I like in the UK and have twin girls who are 2.5 yrs old.
How are you finding being housebound so far?
It’s hard work but also amazing to get the opportunity to spend so much time watching my girls grow! Although difficult with the toddler tantrums x2, I have tried to embrace it as much as possible and appreciate the extra time with them.
Do you have any tips for other parents?
Don’t be hard on yourself. If they spend a day infront of the TV while you get jobs done, don’t feel bad about it!! I try and do at least one activity a day with them so I feel like I have achieved something!
Has being part of our community helped you?
Some great ideas to help keep us all occupied.
