Sometimes, things happen and we are stuck at home. Atlanta, remember Snowmageddon? 

I have many friends that homeschool and I know they are likely well-prepared when something like this happens, but for those of us that don’t homeschool, I thought I’d round up some of my favorite activity post for kids and families. 

Hopefully, this helps keep your brain juices flowing, keeps the body moving and helps with cabin fever. As a bonus, you will likely have some fun, too!
