Keeping kids busy inside - Screen free.
When it's stinking hot, the baby is asleep, or the smoke is too thick, inside is the place to be.
Sometimes you just can't get the kids outside to play, but you really don't want them to be on the technology again! I get it. Technology is so easy.

Helle owns Lucas loves cars. Working with toys since 2012, she has played with toys for a long time and is very picky about which toys make the list. Like a spoilt child, she will have a tantrum if the toy doesn't work and will play for hours if she finds it engaging and fun. Or until someone tells her it's time for lunch.
