If you're at home with your little (or big) ones, and you're looking for activities to keep the kids busy, the CBC Toronto Community team has you covered. Coming up with new activities every day isn't always easy, so we've compiled a list of activities and suggestions to help.

We're also inviting the community to send us photos of how you've been adjusting to staying home as part of our 'Show Us Your GTA' series. So if you'd like to share a photo of your child's colouring book, or maybe a new activity that you're trying out together, tag us on social with the hashtag #CBCyourGTA for the chance to be featured. You can find more information here.

The CBC Arts team has also compiled a list of free colouring pages from Canadian artists across the country, which you can find here.
