School Holidays - How to keep kids busy
Hi guys,
We know many of you have kids who are now home on school holidays and so do we… so we thought we’d send out a list of the resources we have gathered so far to help keep everyone entertained. We have tried to list only activities that are available for free. There are so many people and organisations working to bring us these resources. It’s amazing what people are sharing. We hope you love them as much as we do.
Story Time
Heaps of stories read out online with visuals by famous actors from around the world. It’s great because they can be a bit more interesting for some kids as there is a visual aspect.
National Geographic
Learn about the world with National Geographic for Kids. Full of games, lessons and stories about the natural world and animals.
The World of David Walliams
Listen to stories written and read by David Walliams. Download printable activity pages for many of David’s books.
NASA Kids Club
Enter the world of space and NASA with this free online program from NASA Kids Club. Full of activities around space, planes and rockets.
