Paper work, drawing/sketching/painting/writing  Generally we stock up lot of papers at home... office loo one side printed and left at printer type papers anamaata... so that we are not wasting fresh ones... Pravar likes to draw and color like anything (Sree can tell about this :P) so we ask him to use those... crayons, color pencils are for only paper ani clear gaa cheppamu...

US loo cheppakkarledhu there are many stores... library loo koodaa bollu books dorukuthaayi kadhaaa....

going for walks together is refreshing for them as well as us... manam emi chesthunna vallaki details cheppi chesthee they will understand the process and they know the value of the work we are doing... like vanta chesetappudu veggies cut chesthunaamu, taalimpu vesthunaamu alaa annee chepthee they will feel happy that we are involving them in the process... :).
