Local Mum Launches Busy Little Brains to Help Families with Fun, Educational Summer Activities
A local Pocklington mum has launched a new downloadable activity brand, Busy Little Brains, aimed at helping families keep young children entertained and learning through the summer holidays — all without screens.
Created by mum-of-two and early years enthusiast Jess, Busy Little Brains offers monthly themed activity packs filled with imaginative crafts, phonics games, and educational play ideas for children aged 3 to 7. The activities are curriculum-linked and designed to support Early Years and Key Stage 1 development — making it easy for parents to enjoy meaningful, screen-free fun at home.
To celebrate the launch, Jess is offering a free Mini Summer Explorers Pack, which includes three printable activities, an educational guide, and a colourful completion certificate — ideal for rainy days, holiday boredom, or keeping little brains active before school returns.
“As a parent, I know how tricky the holidays can be — you want to keep your children happy, but also feel like you're supporting their learning,” says [Your Name]. “Busy Little Brains was born out of my own need for simple, fun, purposeful activities that don’t require hours of prep or loads of materials.”
The free mini pack and full monthly subscription packs are available at: Payhip.com/busylittlebrains
