We’re all doing our bit to #stayhome and #staysafe, but it can be hard to keep kid’s entertained.
Below are some links some websites, facebook pages and youtube channels that have lots of different activities to keep you and the family entertained.
If you know of a great website, facebook page, youtube channel which we haven’t got listed below – please let us know at socialmedia@mvhomes.org.uk so we can add it to the list.
Take care of yourselves and enjoy!
