Two week Easter break coming up, some of the parents we know are just going to push on through with more work (well, spreading the existing work out rather than adding more) but we want to create a bit of a break for her.
We'll be easing off quite a lot (she'll keep doing lots of music, ICT and other things she likes) but wondering how to fill the days now that the school routine is going.
Have already planned to surprise her with a camping "trip". Not going outside but putting a small 2 man pop up tent in the lounge and she can sleep in there in a sleeping bag for a couple of nights (unless the novelty wears off). We'll also do camp food for a couple of days (bbq type stuff like frankfurters, etc). I'll hold off forcing her to wee in a bucket in the corner of the room or making her walk 400m in drizzle to brush her teeth in a skanky toilet block. Might even keep the windows shut. I'll be sleeping in my own comfy bed thanks.
Other than puzzles, books and telly, any other ideas for home school holidays?
