I never worry about being bored. There’s always a project to tackle or a burning item on my to-do list (which probably should be called my “should-have-done-it-a-long-time-ago list”).
However kids do get bored. This week’s blog prize helps ensure that the kids in your life won’t suffer that fate. The Kid’s Awesome Activity Book from Workman includes puzzles, mazes, jokes, and stickers sure to keep kids grandkids, nieces, nephews, neighbor kids, and other junior achievers busy and happy.
