Speaking exercise

we have 2 kids, so we spend our time to go outside 2 kids, sometimes we will go to shopping mall and sometimes we will go to amusement, also park but because of the virus the whole February (month of feb) we spent time at home on weekends. I think for us it’s … we spend a lot of time with our 2 children, we did some crafts and sometimes we did some cooking for example we made dumplings, pizza, though we couldn’t go outside my 2 kids also felt happy. Also my daughter and son they also played with each other at home, even some simple sentence maybe for our adults they just run around the house, jump on things, sometimes they will argue with each other but they will be ok quickly. so I think the virus only has a little impact on my 2 kids.
