Some fun activities;)

START A BEAR HUNT!!! Neighborhoods are doing an awesome thing for kids and families going on walks or drives: everyone who wants to participate will put teddy bears in their windows so families can go on a "bear hunt." (Found this online and thought I would join in!) #bearhunt

Parents of teens/pre-teens: this self-quarantine life is tough, especially for our teens who adore their friends. I just wanted to share this free FB Live event that will be next week - Mon/Wed/Fri, 1pm EST - and will teach some photography tips for teens (and pre-teens). Perhaps learning a new hobby and art form can be just the thing to help get them excited while they are stuck at home. And they can tune in with their friends, virtually. More details are on the event page including topics that will be covered. Hope it helps! https://www.facebook.com/events/220224819088155/?event_time_id=220224822421488
