ARTS AND CRAFTS

For creative children, this could be the perfect way to keep busy for days on end. The only expense will perhaps be getting stationery for colouring.

OUTDOOR GAMES

There are various games to play outside the house. Not only will this save you money in terms of electricity usage, but it will be good for their health.
