This is my 3 year old daughter, Matilda. I documented 11 weeks of activities I did with her to keep her stimulated, entertained and to keep me sane! I am a teacher so this was amongst setting tasks for my 16 and 17 year old students to complete and meeting with them on Teams to check they were ok, too, which I was able to do for 2 hours a day. This was only possible as my husband was working but was allowed special leave to look after Matilda whilst I worked. 

It was a tough and trying time but we were lucky that the weather was so nice and we had a garden. I’m pleased that I documented all the weeks as it will be a poignant time when we all look back.
