We loved seeing rainbows appear in our neighbourhood during the last lockdown and going out to count them became a favourite family activity. This time, we’re feeling more jaded – aren’t we all? Which makes it even more important to try and lift our spirits. Why not set aside time this week to try one of these projects? If only because it will keep your kids busy for an afternoon!
2. Write a note to your postman or woman
You’ll need: pens and paper
Simply ask your child to draw a picture of the person who delivers your mail.
If you can, find out their name – it adds a nice personal touch (the recipient of this picture was over the moon!)
You can even add a gift… (Remember to wash their hands first!)
3. Printable Thank You Keyworkers poster
What you’ll need: printer, paper, pens
What to do:
Click the picture to open the printable PDF in a new window. Then print and colour!
4. Chalk a thank you message
You’ll need: Chalks
Just write and draw your message for the key workers you want to thank today.
5. Window pen message
Or use window chalk pens to write a message on the glass of your window instead.
