Creative things to do with kids during lockdown

Keeping kids engaged and entertained at home during lockdown is not easy – staying creative might be the answer.

Not sure where to start looking? Don’t worry, Irish Mirror put together some fun things to do with kids during lockdown.

#1 To help animal-loving children stay busy and happy, Dublin Zoo have released a whole set of amazing activity workbooks.

From chimpanzees to Asian lions, flamingos to snow leopards, kids can learn more about the animal kingdom with puzzles, word searches and colouring in.

#2 Irish comic book artist Will Sliney is also helping kids to get creative during this downtime.

You can check out his live tutorials on YouTube, where you can also watch previous tutorials whenever you like!

#3 Miss Muinteoir, Dublin-based primary school teacher, is now offering a 60-page Parent Pack with worksheets, activities, useful links and free downloads to keep young children busy during this time.

What an absolute legend. These fab resources are suitable for Junior Infants to 2nd class. You can order one here.

Enjoy! x
