**Reposting our activity book list to help you keep kids busy at home. With these books, kids can engage themselves independently giving some much needed break and quiet time. Or get some quick errands or work completed.
These activity books will come in handy if you don't have a printer at home and can't use easy printable activities available on the Internet. All of these books are available on Amazon and you should be able to get them delivered pretty quickly. I got a few for my daughter recently.
We are well into the holiday season. And it won't be completely false to say that a lot of the parents (especially if they have two or more children) could already be at the end of their wits. As if the hush-hush of the festive preparations isn’t exhausting enough, there are kids to engage and entertain!
I am assuming most of us have decided not to allow too much telly to steal the fun from family time. So here comes to my mind an exciting idea that might just help you enjoy that cuppa every now and then – Activity books!
Well, not that exciting perhaps, but it might surprise you how long kids can engage themselves independently with simple activity books.
Here is my list of simple and diverse activity books for pre-schoolers that might be your saving grace this holiday season and beyond. Get some and let their imagination fly as you relax a bit on your sofa.
