A growing thought on many parents' minds as the school year approaches is how to keep your children entertained even after school hours. Here are a few quick tips to ease that worry.
1. Make an activity board where you can post new and creative ideas when you come across them. This will keep things fresh and different for you and your child.
2. Invest in a few books (your local library will probably carry a few) and get various ideas. You can look based on your child's interests, the kind of time you have, or even what supplies you own. Lots of parents even put their own spin on these ideas!
3. A great way to start the afternoon off right is a healthy snack. Snack art is a fun way to get your kids to eat healthy and it's not hard to find relatively simple recipes.

4. Gather some art supplies and designate an area where they are free to color, draw, and create endless artwork. It can keep kids entertained for a long time!
