Food and healthy eating, in general, can be a hassle for parents worldwide without Lockdown and trying to keep the little ones full and busy. Sally, a Primary School teacher from Cardiff, Wales not only makes delicious snacks for her 5-year-old little girl and 2-year-old little boy, but she has made it a fun enjoyable activity. Let’s see how they’re made…
Describe your activity…
Line a plate or tin with some baking paper. We used a Calpol syringe to fill up 5ml of the kid’s yoghurt and made little drops of yoghurt on the plate. Add chopped up fruit or whatever you fancy. Freeze for around 2 hours and enjoy!
What worked/didn’t work?
The baking paper is important as it makes the drops easy to transfer into a pot once frozen.
What’s your next project idea?
I do many tasks daily with my 5 and 2-year-old! Craft, baking, home learning, toddler activities etc Lots of ideas on my Instagram @homelearningisfun.
How are you finding being housebound with kids so far?
I’m really enjoying my time with them and all of the activities we are doing together!
Any tips to help people when they are housebound with kids?
Follow lots of Instagram accounts and Pinterest for ideas! Keep in touch with friends and family via FaceTime if possible! There is a great app called Caribu for kids to use with other family members.
