10 Days of Happiness is a free online coaching program which guides you through daily actions for happier living."

These 16 everyday learning activities we do with our children at home during school closures certainly count as learning. Thank you to We Are Teachers for this excellent graphic.

Try out one of these FREE Digital Escape Rooms to bring some well-deserved amusement to your home or classroom!

Escape Rooms are traditionally a physical “locked” room in which there are clues on how to escape. You need to solve each clue or problem that is presented in order to move onto the next clue, which, when you’ve solved enough, will eventually allow you to leave the room. Now, imagine this scenario, but in a virtual setting.

A digital escape room, like the ones described below, will give you a short story in reference to the theme. As you click through the prompts they give you, there will come a time where you need to solve a problem or a clue in order to click to the next prompt. Just as in real life, you won’t be able to “escape” until all the clues have been solved.

30-Day LEGO Challenge Printable Calendar (instant download)
Sometimes, it only take a little bit of a prompt to get the creative juices flowing. The prompts included in this printable LEGO calendar do just that!
For each day, a specific LEGO building idea is presented.
For example:
Day 2: NASA needs you to build a new rocket.
Day 24: The local bank keeps getting robbed. Build a safe no one can crack!
Each day is assigned a task, and it’s up to your creative kiddo to complete it!
