Actividades para hacer con los niños en casa

This holiday season demands a lot of creativity from us with the activities to do with the children at home. For this particular topic, we are going to leave out the use of tablets, television and mobile phones, for something different and entertaining! For this reason, we share with you some fun activities where we can unite the children both at the table and in the kitchen.

Among the most popular activities, which will keep children entertained for long hours, we find doing experiments. Learning from home experiments is not only fun but also different where our children learn new basic concepts of physics and chemistry.

Have you ever made candles? Making candles with children is an unforgettable experience. Use blocks of colored wax, molds and wicks. Then between all of you start your creativity.

How about creating your own Family Trivia? We are going to invent a trivia game with information from family and friends, writing them on small cards and trying to answer correctly.

Finally, the kitchen is a whole world of stories, and will allow you to create a delicious and very useful activity for children. To do this, Wilton en Español brings you the best recipes and ideas during this season.
