Craft work is like a stress buster for me n in free time I always ready to make something new n creative + useful too.
How are you finding being housebound so far?
Housebound with kids is some times very challenging. Kids are always full of energy n we as a parents need to understand that how we can utilise their energy in engaging them in some productive work. So that they learn something in a creative and fun way.
Do you have any tips for other parents?
Most important never ignore what they are saying. Listen to them, give time. Involve them in household chores. Like washing utensils. Making tea. How to wash the clothes in washing machine, cleaning their room. Give them some spiritual knowledge of mantras.
Has being part of our community helped you?
It’s just amazing. It gives you vast ideas for making new things.
