This is hilariously accurate! You really captured that specific chaos of winter break with little kids, that weird time warp where you're not sure what day it is, everything's covered in a layer of toys and wrapping paper debris, and we as parents are just... surviving.
My kids are 8, 6, and 4, so can entertain themselves, the oldest can read, etc., and we got tons of snow so winter break was fun. I disliked how cold and long it was in Boston, but it's way better when your kids are old enough to go sledding and ice skating and visit museums without putting stuff in their mouths.
I really felt this this year! Having a 2 ½ home for 3 weeks straight was a little too much 🥴. But then the first day he went back to daycare I missed him!
I horrified a childless friend by telling them winter break was good because I got a bad cold at a time where I had the fewest responsibilities and could rest in relative peace.
