Look, Lockdown 3 has been a struggle for everyone, even yourfavourite celebrities. While it may seem like they have it better, what with their giant mansions and endless piles of money, at the end of the day we're all stuck inside indefinitely with no choice but to grit our teeth and get through it.
But for those social distancing with kids at home, it can seem even more impossible. How do you keep them entertained all day and how are you possibly supposed to fill-in for their actual teachers? Well, let's ask the A-list for some help.

'I think we're all like "what is this?" I'm not a teacher! And also, have you seen the math they make the kids do now? It's a new math! It's crazy…Half the time I'm like, "okay, yeah, let's look up that word. What's that mean?"'
