Craft – Upcycling
Use empty plastic bottles to make musical instruments
1) Fill bottles with colourful beads/rice/macaroni.
2) Paint the bottles.
3) Leave bottles to dry in the garden or on the windowsill.
3:00 Usual after-school routine/tutor visit
Limit homework if children have made a good effort to focus during the day.
Keep them calm and busy with crafts, board games.
Encourage children to participate in errands and set up a rota for them to become a part of being at home during the day.
They will feel important and you will feel calm. Cue freshly brewed tea.
You're welcome.
