Zoom Trip to the Zoo
We did lots of drawings of all the lovely animals we saw at Edinburgh Zoo.
Today, PACT took a Zoom trip to Edinburgh Zoo and Washington's Natural History Museum to draw some animals. You can travel around the world from the comfort of your kitchen!

Its challenging enough being an adult in this time of isolation but when you are a parent of young children it gets a whole lot harder.
In response we asked some of our parents from the PACT Project to share photos and videos of what they have been doing to keep their babies, toddlers and young children entertained.
Enjoy this incredible mix of ideas help your family beat the boredom!

A quilt created by the Social Justice Sewing Academy
It's time to get creative! Can you draw, paint or sew? Join us and make a PACT quilt to represent our community and share messages from our time apart during isolation. We want each PACT parent, child or volunteer to make a design on one square of fabric, which we will sew together into one beautiful quilt when we are reunited!
Do you have a message or experience you would like to share? Keep on reading for instructions, ideas and even a tutorial on how to dye clothing from parent leader Danna Michelley!
Remember to use what you have at home, whether that is some old clothes, a needle and thread or pens and paints!
