Are screens completely out, or only TV/games? I've been getting a ton of ads for online learning for kids, and I'm thinking of buying a couple of the programs. My older kids might learn computer skills or graphics on udemy, something like that. Reading Raven for the youngest, to work on her English reading.
Honestly, my hope is to keep them learning at least part of the day. And to get in an exercise hour, because otherwise they'll go nuts. Other than that: cooking/baking projects, art projects, learning to do fancy hairstyles, reading (it's just a shame they closed all the libraries...). Loooong bathtimes for the youngest. Maybe in the beginning when I'm still optimistic, I'll try to get them to help me paint a couple bedrooms.
(People were talking about stocking up on food today, and I was thinking - why food? If we might be stuck at home with the kids for two weeks, I'm stocking up on crayons and colored paper...)

We are making a nice amazon order. It usually gets here in about a week. DH is taking the big girls to Geula for yomtov dresses since all the girls will be home we need to get stuff before the big rush.

The Jerusalem Post was reporting that we should expect delays in deliveries from Amazon and Next. Most of it comes in on commercial flights but for some reason they are also being affected.

Yes, but come to think about it, it's really no different than a teachers' strike and we've had plenty of those in the past. Even really long ones.

My kids are off school and I'm starting a new job Monday.
Whoopie. It sounds like my on boarding will be remote because the office has over 100 people, while I watch my kids. My husband will trade off days working from home/entertainment also.
It's literally madness. I'm cringing just thinking of the economy. So many people are getting put on unpaid leave. So many self employed people.

My 70 year old in laws are worse than my teenagers. They think we are over reacting. My FIL refuses to stop going to shul. They went to a neighbors brit mila yesterday for no good reason.
My DH is literally screaming at them multiple times a day to take care of themselves.

Well, as of 8pm tonight (after shabbat) everything non essential in this country, is closing tomorrow. People are being asked to work from home, no gatherings with more than 10 people. Supermarkets, pharmacies, banks will still be open, but otherwise, its home sweet home for the next long while for all of us israeli ladies.
Mazal is needed for us all.
