The kids are on vacation! And that means two things: no more homework or pending projects (at least for two weeks), but also, a lot of free time, a lot…
To keep your kids from getting bored, give them a vacation they can truly enjoy with entertaining, simple, and economical activities.
The best winter vacation tips are here! Follow these tips and have a great time with your little ones during these days off:
1. Take the time to spend with them
It's true that many times moms don’t have the same vacation time as our children. However, it is necessary to look for opportunities to enjoy their free time. Otherwise, the little ones will spend all their vacation in front of the television or computer screen.
What if today you prepare food together? With this recipe for
Catarina sandwich, everyone will have fun.
2. Teach them to enjoy the little things
Children learn what they see, and if every day they find that the rush of routine prevents us from enjoying the little things, they are likely to lose their ability to admire as well. Take them to a park, let them play with the dirt and leaves, let them chase butterflies or birds. It may not seem like much, but we assure you that your little ones will enjoy it a lot.

3. Let them get involved in everyday household activities
The key to making this work lies in how you present it: it’s not an obligation, it’s an invitation to help mom. Anything that allows them to step out of their routine (home-school-home) can be very interesting for them. They may get messier than they can clean at first, but it’s important that they learn to collaborate at home from a young age.
Cooking can also be fun! Ask for their help to prepare this
hedgehog snack and let their imagination fly.
4. Give them the chance to get messy
This is not about your kids always being in stained clothes, but do give them a break, at least during the vacation. Let them paint without a brush, eat with their hands, jump in puddles… Remember that where you see a dirty shirt, they see a fun experience. Let them enjoy.
It's always a good occasion to celebrate with confetti. Make these
confetti bombs together and have fun without needing to leave the house.
5. Take them to the movies
Don't overthink it. A visit to the movies is a great option to enjoy the vacation with your kids. Just choose a movie that is suitable for your little ones, like Tadeo 2: The Lost Explorer. Enjoy the adventures of this peculiar explorer as he searches for his beloved Sara and the legendary papyrus of Midas with your kids.
Which of these options will you choose for your children? Happy vacations!
