Daily Coronavirus Check-in: Is it possible to spoil a child?

Isolation has been a great eye-opener for my husband and I on this topic, because we have been throwing new toys and games at our eldest child almost on a daily basis to try and keep him entertained. He usually does a few days a week at daycare, where the set-up is exceptional, whereas at home, mum and dad areexhausted and trying to sneak in a few minutes of work whenever possible. Enter the influx of toys. So is it ok to make a problem disappear by giving our kids what they want? We got some tips from financial guru and father-of-two Scott Pape.
