Having the little whippersnappers running around for an additional 6 or 7 hours a day under your heels while you¡¯re still trying to run the household or heaven forbid keep a job , can of course be the recipe for ¡°Frazzled Mum/ Dad¡±. 8)

So we did a round of the office and collected our favorite list of ¡®cool stuff to do¡¯ in the holidays:

1) Make a paper mache Piggy Bank (also good for teaching saving lessons at a young age!) http://fun.familyeducation.com/handicrafts/sculpting/36120.html

2) Jewelry making http://familycrafts.about.com/cs/jewelrymaking/a/082399.htm

3) Taste Tests http://fun.familyeducation.com/play/35564.html

4) Obstacle Course http://fun.familyeducation.com/exercise/activity/37126.html

5) Build an indoor hut/ fort http://multiples.about.com/od/familyfun/a/indoorfunfort.htm

6) Go Exploring¨C go exploring beyond your local area and check out parks you wouldn¡¯t normally go to. Its fun for kids to explore new areas, and you might find a great new location for next year¡¯s birthday party!

7). Puzzles ¨C remember when we used to play puzzles? Kids love puzzles, and you can get some awesome puzzles for kids of all ages.

Jumping on a Springfree Trampoline of course!

What have you got planned for your holidays?
