Ever since the schools closed, I started looking for valuable resources to help us get through this period easier.
I was very happy to discover several big lists of ideas, but then I quickly got overwhelmed. While some of the resources turned out to be helpful, I also wasted a lot of time checking out resources that didn’t offer the quality content I wanted.
This is why I decided to put together a list of resources that are tested by us, so you don’t waste any time going through tons of sites and apps to figure out which one is best for your kids.
We love these resources and I hope you and your kids will enjoy them as much as we do!
The list includes both free resources from valuable sources and free limited-time subscriptions from educational companies.
