We know entertaining kids all day can feel like a full-time job, and it can get more complicated when you run out of ideas or when sibling arguments start. In this video, Emily shows you how to make a customized “Choose Your Adventure” jar with items you likely have around the house. This activity will keep your kids busy and gives your family the opportunity to choose fun, active, and educational activities. The best part is, choosing a popsicle stick randomly can prevent indecision or possible sibling fights!
