Fun, FREE Quarantine Activities for Kids with Mandy from Curated Play Spaces

Curated Play Spaces

Enjoy this helpful guest post by Hyattsville’s Mandy Sheffer.

As we face down weeks in social isolation at home (absolutely necessary due to COVID-19, but nonetheless challenging), I have been so inspired by all the wonderful people sharing ways to make this time easier for families and I thought I would share some ideas of my own.

In my past life I was an early childhood teacher/director. I also homeschooled my oldest child for a year. In my current business, I help families create/revamp play spaces for their small humans – inside and out.

Read on for fun ideas you can do with your kids, taken from things I have done or plan to do with my boys (aged three and seven).
