At Home Activity: Whoop-de-doo Roller Coaster Sculpture

In a lot of ways, the roller coaster feels like a spot-on metaphor for the parenting and caregiving process—especially during COVID-19.

Today’s at home activity lets you and your little ones dig even deeper into what makes a roller coaster the fun, thrilling, terrifying ride that it is. Talk about what makes rides scary, then build your own with everyday, easy-to-find materials.

At Home Activity: Tear It Up

Look at your little one’s hands. Yes—they're adorable (and maybe a little sticky), but did you also know that they’re working really, really hard?

That’s because our hands grow the most when we’re between ages 0 and 5 years old. And as a result, our little one’s hands do a lot of work to get stronger, more flexible, and more adept at skills we eventually need... like using scissors.

Today’s at home activity video is all about enhancing those skills.
