DIY trends 2021: Screen-free play

It’s difficult to keep children entertained during the lockdown with many schools being shut down. The first week or two is great, amazing even, as the novelty of no school is still fresh. However maintaining that momentum and coming up with new, interesting ways to keep kids occupied is hard and resorting to phones and tablets can be a lifesaver sometimes. We wanted to come up with some toy patterns for screen-free toys that encourage imaginative playtime for your children.
