for the paper airplane loving kids!

MINI MAGNETIC TILE MAZE ages 3+ I have a new OBSESSION and they are these mini-magnetic tiles from PicassoTiles. Get them here >> https://raisingdragonssho...p.com//picassotiles-60-piece-3d-m They are about half the size of regular magnetic tiles and oh so cute! They work perfectly to create mazes like the one in the video using a pizza tray. Their smaller size allows them to stay in place better than regular sized tiles. They are also perfect for taking on the go. I carry them out with us in a cloth pencil pouch so my kids will have an activity to do when were waiting at the doctors office , at sports practice or at a restaurant .

The prime minister had a special thank you to our kids; thought we would share "I want to thank you all for helping us slow the spread of COVID-19. To those of you who usually spend your Sundays in a place of worship, thank you for staying home today. I know its not easy, but it is deeply appreciated. And to all the kids out there, all of a sudden youve heard you cant go on playdates or have sleepovers. Your playgrounds and schools have closed, and your March Break was c...ertainly different than what youd hoped for. I get it from my kids as well, theyre watching a whole lot more movies, but they miss their friends, and at the same time theyre worried about whats going on our there in the world and what their future may hold. I know this is a big change but we have to do this not just for ourselves, but for our grandparents, our nurses, our doctors and everyone working at our hospitals. And you kids are helping a lot. The doctors and scientists have been clear that social distancing which means staying at least two metres apart, and staying home as much as possible is the best way to help each other. And youre having to wash your hands a lot. So a special thanks to all you kids. Thank you for helping your parents work from home. For sacrificing your usual day, for doing math class around the kitchen table, and for trusting in science. Were going to have more to say to you soon, so stay tuned." See more

Some of you may have already heard of a movement started on social media to put hearts in your windows for kids to spy while going out for a drive or walk... to...day driving with my kids I was happy to see people in our community are joining in! Weve painted some spring things on our window too! See more
