What Shall We Do Now? Excerpt
Short Summary: Packed with ideas for rainy days and holidays, this book covers everything from paper dolls and guessing games to nature crafts and treasure hunts. A vintage treasure trove of fun!
"When a group of children say they are bored, this book should be taken down from its shelf and opened at random. Something always comes up."
"Paper birds are not difficult to make. First cut a stiff cardboard outline, then add feathers from old pillows or cotton for a comical look. Suspend with thread and watch them flutter."
"If the weather is poor, try a memory tray. Fill it with random small objects, let everyone study it for one minute, then cover it and see who remembers the most."
"And for outdoor fun, chalk mazes or relay races can make even a short garden feel like a field of adventure."
