Mack's top things to do with the kids this Festive Season
Because kids get bored easily, it is important to find activities that will keep them entertained. If you are looking at activities that won’t cost you much, it may be best to look at activities that you can do in-house.
Depending on your child’s age and interests, here are Mack's top things to do with the kids this Festive Season:
- Bake a Christmas cake together. While you're at it, don’t shout at your child for the mistakes they might make. Remember, the most important thing is the fun aspect of the exercise.
- Have a picnic and let your child help you decide on what to pack in the picnic basket.
- Watch their favourite movie. Most of the time parents don’t like the same movies as their children, but you should allow your children to pick the movies they like and watch them together while you have popcorn.
- Play a game that includes cleaning. Most kids don’t like to tidy up or clean, but you can make them clean in a fun way and offer them a nice reward after the cleaning is done.
- Play a card, puzzle, or board game together.
- Dance to their favourite music together.
- Play hide and seek.
If you are looking for outdoor activities, you can do the following:
- Go to a theme park.
- Go ice-skating.
- Visit the zoo or a museum.
- Take The Red Bus City Tour which will take you to some of Johannesburg's best spots.
- Play paintball.
