Easy At-Home-Learning Activities with Household Materials
At-home-learning is definitely different than we’re all used to. Even homeschoolers are reeling with the change in routine requiring them to stay at home, miss co-ops, field trips and other out of the home activities. And going from being a working parent to a work-at-home-at-home-learning parent is a HUGE change. And many families don’t have a printer at home or aren’t already signed up for HP Instant Ink if they do have a printer, so printing is expensive. Even the simplest no-prep printables can be a deal-breaker for those without a printer. So, I’ve put together a HUGE resource of Easy Learning Activities with household materials. That way everyone can keep learning. Printer or not.
