Yes, I know the kids are going to be getting plenty of sugar, presents and free time over the next two weeks, but I am also betting I will hear, “Mom, I’m Bored” multiple times a day. I am making a list of ways to combat this - I’d love your ideas too. Submit them to me and I’ll add them to the list along with some link love.

• Printables For Kids - shameless plug for me, but this site is loaded with fun, creative, printable activities for kids of all ages. All the printables are original creations of mine, inspired by my kids.
• Free Holiday Ideas - Katelyn has everything from crafts to recipes and everything in between. You can get some good ideas here.
• Mom, I’m Bored - (see, I’m not the only one with this problem!) has compiled a nice list of Christmas craft sites.
• Create a family scrapbook
• Have a family game night
• Build a virtual snowman or Ben & Jerry’s style (or the real thing if you have the snow)
• From Eliza - try VisitMyTree for some fun

This should get us started! Now send me your ideas and links and let’s get this vacation started.
