Summer is winding down, and kids are getting ready to start school again for the fall-but in many places (including mine) we’re still going to be having school from home, mostly or fully online, so you might still need some activities for your kids to do while you’re juggling your work-from-home schedule or getting dinner ready. Here’s a few books and activities that my kids have been enjoying!

This book is chock-full of so many different types of activities involving paper crafts, and my 7-year-old has been finding things to do for nearly a year. She’s made pennant banners, little notes with heart-shaped envelopes, paper dolls, paper bowls, and more. The book has perforated pages that include sparkly foil pages, pages of decorative letters to cut out and spell things, postcards, labels, plus a few stickers.

It’s a great resource for kids who just like to make things out of paper because it has so much decorative paper that can be used for a variety of craft projects, but it also has some pages designed for specific purposes, like the geometric bowls or fortune tellers.
