15 spring break boredom busters | This Reading Mama

We are on Spring Break this week. And while I love the extra time with my kids, not being on our regular schedule can create a little chaos at times. It helps to have a few tricks up my sleeve for those moments when I think I’m going to lose my sanity…a few spring break boredom busters, if you may. Maybe you’d like a few tricks, too (just in case). So I’ve collected a few.
