Actor Shilpa Shetty, like scores of other parents who have been thinking of innovative ways to keep their children engaged during coronavirus isolation, has come up with a novel idea. She has posted a video of pictures as the mother and son go through a tie and dye session at home.
Sharing it, not only did Shilpa leave a long note on coronavirus isolation, she also shared how to go about doing a session at home. She wrote: “How do I keep my child occupied?!” is the million dollar question playing on every parent’s mind right now. This ‘unplanned’ break has to be endured, since it can’t be cured. We try planning a few hours of interesting activities in a day for our kids, but what do you do when you hear, “Mommy, I’m bored!!” and you DON’T want to give them the iPad!”
Shilpa continued that one had to think of out-of-the-box methods to keep children busy. During their session, their family pet, a cat named Simba, also made a cameo. “Take it from me, tearing your hair out isn’t going to help as much as you’d think it would. You have to put on your thinking caps, aiming to make the most of this time together. So, you invent, innovate, and come up with something as it’s a DO OR “DYE” situation.. that’ll keep them busy and you happy. Today’s bonding session with Viaan happened with some tie-&-dye activity at home, with a special appearance by Simba! (Who nearly got her tail dyed).”
