Judy Ann, Iya, Saab, and More Celeb Moms Share What's Keeping Their Kids Busy At Home

It's been five days — yes, only five days so far — since everybody was ordered to stay home. Whether you're still working from home or just chilling with the kids, you're probably already wondering how long you can keep this up. You're not alone.

But look at it this way: This measure to contain the spread of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is giving back parents the time they lost traveling to and from work. Make it a time to reset and focus on what matters: family.

What celeb parents and kids are doing under quarantine

You suddenly have all day to be with your kids. Now what? It's time to make the most out of it. Celebrity parents and kids have been sharing how they've been keeping the kids busy and entertained, making sure they're not always in front of screens, that they're being productive, and that they're having fun!

Judy Ann Santos, Ryan Agoncillo, and kids

Apart from homeschooling, Judy Ann Santos, Ryan Agoncillo, and their kids are also keeping fit together. They have time for music, too. Luna so graciously played the piano and sang a song dedicated to our frontliners. So cute!

Team Kramer: Kendra, Scarlett, and Gavin

Team Kramer kids are no newbies to homeschooling. But aside from this, being holed up in their "forever" mansion, gives them a lot to do, like play, swim in the pool, and tend to their vegetable garden.

Bianca Gonzalez with daughters Lucia and Carmen

"I never thought of myself as capable of homeschooling my kids," Bianca Gonzales wrote. They did an online art class, flashcards, writing exercises, reading time, and ended their class with a song and a prayer.

Play, reading, and music form a huge chunk of Saab Magalona's game plan during this quarantine period with the Bacarro brothers, Pancho and Vito. Oh, and the boys are also getting their daily dose of vitamin sun!

Iya Villania, Drew Arellano, Primo and Leon

Preggo Iya Villania did a GMA's 24 Oras segment "Chika Minute" at home because she's pregnant and is most definitely not allowed to go out. Beyond that, she and Drew Arellano play, swim, and read to Primo and Leon.

Bettina Carlos and Gummy

Bettina Carlos's daughter Gummy helped sort things as they cleaned the home. "It was not perfectly organized after, but she was engaged and entertained, and that was a good almost an hour doing something," she said.

If it was challenging for someone to imagine a stay-at-home mom's everyday battle, this is the time to acknowledge it. Remember, your kids need alone time, too, as do you! Take it one day at a time.
