It can be difficult to keep your kids out of your hair as you prepare to move to a new condo. In a new life at the Union Square Residences, you can do these five things and keep them occupied as you pack your belongings into boxes and have everything ready.
Arts and Craft
Develop your child’s talent by allowing him or her to engage in the art or craft they like. Have them draw, paint, knit, or do simple woodworking activities so they can work with their hands and improve hand-eye coordination.
Puzzles
Puzzles have evolved from jigsaw types to more creative and modern forms. You can look up what kinds are available online or through shopping apps, then have them sent directly to your doorstep. Once they’re interested they can spend dozens of hours piecing the puzzle together and having fun at the same time.
Let Them Help
Getting your kids involved in the moving process can save you time and keep them occupied. Let them do the small tasks, such as making a list of what goes in each box or by giving you water and snacks during breaks.
Books
Reading books is a great way to pass the time, and it encourages your kids to use their imagination as they rifle through the pages. Opt for books they’re interested in and can read, and you can choose whether to get them a traditional paperback or in digital format through e-book readers.
Educational Shows
Shows and videos are good options if you want them to keep busy for a while. Choose educational content so they can learn while they’re entertained. This can be streamed on most modern devices, including smartphones, tablets, computers, and smart TVs.
