What a great list! I am pinning this to come back to later. We’ve only been out of school one day and I already can’t count the number of times I’ve heard “I’m bored”
This is really cool! Some super fun things here. I’ve seen a couple of these, and I wanted to try them. Thanks for sharing
What a great list to keep as a reference for when my grandkids visit. Thanks for putting this together.
