13 Fun Photo Activities for Kids

13 Fun Photo Activities for Kids
  1. Create a time lapse video - It’s much easier than it sounds I promise. All you need is something simple to move (like a toy) and an app on your phone. You can find a blog post about it Here.

  2. A photo scavenger hunt - Get them searching high and low around the house for certain items. This is a great way to teach them colours and letters without realising they’re learning. You can download an Indoor Scavenger Hunt List Here.
