Ah the beauty of vacations for children, no school, no alarm clock, lots of free time... we can't say the same for parents or baby sitters. Because you'll have to be extra creative to make sure your little balls of energy don't get bored. Don't panic, Kidlee is here and has prepared some ideas to keep the kids busy during the summer vacations.

A little trip to the kitchen is a must during the vacations

If there is one place that puts everyone in agreement, it is the kitchen. In fact, some time ago, we proposed the Top 5 homemade cookie recipes to make with kids or even 3 easy recipe ideas for a healthy snack, today we come back with a recipe of home-made ice cream. Moreover, in summer time, we can't say no to an ice cream. This rainbow sorbet recipe will be a hit with the kids. All the colors of the rainbow are there thanks to the pretty fruits used. For the recipe, it is by here.

Make a teepee

Whether you have a backyard to put the tent in or not, this is a genius idea that will make the child go crazy with joy. If you're short on space, feel free to put the teepee up in the child's playroom or bedroom, so he or she will have their own little secret world nearby. Want to know how you can make a teepee in 8 steps? 

You will need 6 sticks to give the teepee its hexagonal shape. Preferably sticks that are 1.8 meters long and approximately 19 mm in diameter. You will also need 4 or 5 meters of fabric, the more the bigger the tipi. Choose a fabric that is strong enough for the teepee to last a long time. Finally, 1 meter of rope.

Now that you have the theory, it is necessary to move to the practice. To do this, you must follow the steps mentioned by Club Mamans.
