Raising kids in lockdown!

Parenting in a pandemic can be hard, but the best thing about the lockdown is getting to spend quality time with your kids. Sara Arfeen Khan shares her experience of bringing up her twin babies – Aizah and Zidane, during these strange times. “What worried me the most was the social skills of my babies getting affected. From the age of two months, I took my babies for activities like mum & baby yoga, swimming, and sensory classes in London and that helped their social skills. After I learnt that the lockdown was going to extend, I took the initiative to create as much fun and learning experience at home,” says Sara.

Sara shares, “I gathered some tools that are easily available, like wooden spatulas, steel bowls, scarves, ice, etc to improve their sensory skills and I even got a bouncy castle with a pool.”
