Looking for a fun activity to help your family unplug at dinner? Print out and complete this “quarantine mad lib” with your family. It’s also fun for Zoom play dates – one kid can ask the other kid for the words and then read the story and they will likely both roll in laughter. Please note: this isn’t to make light of a MASSIVELY hard situation. Instead, we hope it’s a disarming conversation starter with kids! Getting them laughing – especially if you allow them to use potty words – about this hard time actually opens the door for connection and conversations thereafter. You can share afterwards, “That was so funny. Man, this is actually really hard. I wish we weren’t going through this. What do you think about all this?” And see where the conversation goes…
