The kids are off from school for at least the next couple of weeks, but there are a variety of resources available online that allow them to continue to learn about and explore the world around them right from the comfort of your own home. Just click on any of the titles below to be taken to that website.
Continue to check back, as I plan to add more websites each day! And share this with your friends who are also looking for ways to keep their kids entertained during this time when we are stuck at home. The learning and fun doesn't have to stop when you have Macaroni Kid!
