Monday: I taught the kids how to use the washer and dryer. Why didn't I do this before, it was so easy???? I love saying "hey sis, please go put the clothes that are in the washer into the dryer." And she does it......SO NICE! I didn't know how to use a washer and dryer till I went to college. My Mom just did it for us.
Tuesday: I got some little notebooks at Staples on clearance (5 for 1$). We made them into nature books. We took a walk and found bugs to draw.
Wednesday: We were suppose to experiment with sticky stuff around the house but were to pooped from playing at the Splashpad.
Thursday: Took a trip to the ZOO and went to story time. The kids got to pet a snake. We lucked out as the National Children's Study was there with a game and each child who played got a coupon for a free Papa Murphy's kids kit. I got them for Friday's lunch and the kids had fun putting their own little pizza's together. *I enjoyed the lunch date with my hubby. Have I mentioned that I LOVE having Danika home to babysit!!!! Three of them also won bike helmets WOO HOO!!!!
Friday: We made rock candy. We made three different kinds, Peppermint, Cinnamon, and Cherry flavored. It was fun to see the crystals forming only an hour after we did it. We are leaving them in the jars for a week or so to get big crystals.
Even with
the other activities through the week: Tennis lessons, Tee ball, coaches pitch, library, scouts, activity days, 4-H..... I feel like I need do more for each day of the week to keep their minds going.
