Another take on the 'Bucket List' from Siobhan at Children's Therapy Centre. A great idea to write down and save all the activities, places you want to visit and people you want to visit. Once the restrictions are lifted and it is safe to do so we can begin doing them.
You can follow her on Facebook or Instagram where she posts up lots of brilliant ideas to help you and your children during this tough time. If you haven't heard of Niamh Shaw before, you definitely need to watch this and follow her online, watch her videos and listen to her stories. An engineer, a scientist, an artist and a performer. Her ultimate dream is to go to space! And one of passions is to bring everyone along with her on her journey through talks on radio, television. Just take a look for yourself.....BE CURIOUS! :) Niamh also recommends those interested to follow @esa (European Space Agency). They have great activities you can do at home. This website has designed a daily schedule of interesting topics to learn about, research and much more. They have broken it into class levels. Now, it is American so some topics may not be relevant but scroll through it and you definitely find a few activities that will interest your child. Equivalent Grade/Class levels: Pre-K = Junior Infants Kindergarten = Senior Infants Grade 1 = 1st Class Grade 2 = 2nd Class....and so on..

Let’s Play Ireland is a government-led initiative aimed at promoting play for all children living in Ireland during the COVID-19 emergency.
Playing is central to children’s physical, mental, social and emotional health and wellbeing. Children learn through play while developing resilience, flexibility and understanding of their world. Play in families enriches childhood. All children and young people have a right to play. Play has never been more important, but during this time please follow the HSE advice on physical distancing and wash your hands. For more information go to hse.ie/coronavirus. Follow this link: https://www.gov.ie/en/campaigns/lets-play-ireland/ One of our parents was asked to write a piece about Hope for the HSE. Hope is certainly something we all need during this difficult time. He has kindly shared it with us and it is well worth the read. Thank you Barry! The Department of Education have releases an example of a Plan for the Day. |
