I have been struggling with what to do with the kidlets for our Easter Centres next week. Fifi’s BFF will be spending the next 3 weeks with us and this is a great centre to put together for all the kidlets to keep them occupied during the school holidays. I have found some GREAT online inspiration and decided to share these finds on Montessori Madness this week.
