@xin-li I love it! A collaboration piece is a fantastic idea! My friend does this with her boys. Let me think a bit and see if I can remember what I did when I taught preschool. Best of luck to you guys. The world is slowly starting to stop things here in my area.
You can make a mobile with a coat hanger and thread or light string and paper or cardboard drawings. You can write and illustrate a book together and use cardboard to make the cover. Bind it with string or thread.

That s in French, but basically you draw characters on one side (like a bear, a dino, etc), other characters on the other side (like a ant for example) and when the columns and lines meet, you have a wonderful monster (like half dino, half ant).
The real game is a bit more complex - this is simplified given your child is only 3.
Share with us the results and have fun!
I haven't checked it out, but I saw this list of "online field trips":

My sister (with 5 kids) shared this one: https://adventuresinfamilyhood.com/20-virtual-field-trips-to-take-with-your-kids.html?fbclid=IwAR2FyWKTkfMnKrRaPxwyueFMkATILMqRkgA94fy_A2L1ao2Os8yuyG8xZ7M
"I love this! So many great resources! Each section has worksheets and activities to make the tours interactive."
The Cincinnati Zoo is having daily Facebook Live streams at 3PM (EDT) featuring a different animal each day.

(The website gives more info & an activity related to the animal that you can do at home.)
They have featured 3 animals already, & you can watch the previous videos anytime.
Hey, I realise this topic is a few years old now but I thought I'd add a comment in case anyone watching the thread finds it to be useful. I have recently started my own YouTube channel to help kids learn how to draw basic characters and objects. Ideal for when they're stuck for something to do indoors! I'm happy to share the channel with you, perhaps your children might want to give one or more of my videos a try. Thanks, Tom
