With Christmas just around the corner, we will all have more time to play and learn at home. Christmas is a time to gather with family and friends during this season to celebrate the year, enjoy the company.
They look to strengthen their ties, to spend significant moments with one another, to spread joy and goodwill.
Children can celebrate Christmas with fun family activities to play and learn together. One of the best ways is to start the Christmas cheer is with arts & crafts at-home learning through play.
