One of the best ways to entertain the kids over the Summer holidays is with new books.
My youngest loves activity books and craft activities, whereas her older brother can make his way through a full box set of books at super speed if he is really gripped.

Summer Activity Books from Books2Door
Books2Door have a great range at very reasonable prices, which can keep little ones entertained when you need a quiet and peaceful day at home, or take some of the activity books out and about with you to keep them occupied for example when waiting at restaurants or while travelling.
My parenting life hack is that I always bring the Usbourne sticker dolly dressing books whenever we go out to eat. It keeps my 5 year old busy and happy while waiting for her food, and when the youngest kids are occupied it makes the whole trip much more peaceful.
You can stock up on all kinds of varieties of these at Books2Door
I also stocked up on magic painting books, which is a brilliant activity when the kids want to paint but you don’t fancy the full on mess.
Using water and a paintbrush you can make magical colourful pictures appear. My little girl loves these books too, and the Usbourne ones which we’ve got from Books2Door are the best quality brand that I have come across.
We got some finger print art books too, which came in a pack of three which is great value and lots of fun to create all kinds of pictures by stamping with ink.
If you’re at a loose end for things to do at home with the kids this summer holidays, a browse through the activity books section on books2door will help give you lots of inspiration.
I normally find all kinds of activities and books that I know my kids will love, and spending time together doing the activity books is a really nice way to reconnect with the children and spend some peaceful time, especially after some busy days when we all need to chill.
The quiz and puzzle books section also has some really fun options for all ages, so I can definitely find plenty of books to keep us all occupied throughout the year, and make good use of the Books2Door Plus+ delivery subscription service!
