Bring the World to you…
We may not be able to travel now but this is a wonderful time to bring the family together to learn more about the world and have fun in the process…
Try celebrating a different country / cuisine each night…. Check out Epicurious for recipes.
We did Italian night with bruschetta, risotto and biscotti. One of my boys pulled together some facts about Italy to share during dinner and another created a Kahoot game, all about Italy that we played after dinner. Try finishing off the night with Roman Holiday, Casino Royale or another film that takes places in Italy.
Fun for family, guess locations in the world – visit Geoguessr
Use this time to learn some new words in another language – try Duolingo
Also these are good resources if you want to learn more about geography or want to play some geography games:
Draw your own map of the world – have the family pin spots they have pin and use a different color pin to represent areas you’d like to visit.
Or pull out an album from a favorite family trip and try drawing or painting one of the spots you visited. Or create a diorama, using crafts and recyclables around the house.
Want to learn more about our own town?
Check out The Concord Museum website – it’s full of so interesting info.
Also, The Concord Library, obviously, has a lot of terrific reading material.
Test your family and see who knows the most about our town’s history. You’ll be prepared for Patriot’s Day!
