October 14-16
Seriously I don’t think I can plug Art for Kids site hard enough. It is our go to place for drawing anything and everything… and right now they are well centered in the Halloween spirit.
With Daddy’s help Monday also centered on a new science project. This time making our own frost using a metal bowl, ice and salt.
We also made Echo her very own Princess hat!
On Tuesday the twins and Nana had a baking/science session making pumpkin muffin/cupcakes using a recipe she found online with canned pumpkins and cake mix. We are loving the time together with everyone learning more about the world around us!
Then we crafted it up with the Perler Beads… some days fun is the way to educate!
With some time on our hands and lots of hands to help the twins were also able to get some rather spiffy haircuts! Short short short.
Mid week was another day of happy learning with Ken having the time to read with the kids! These special moments have been so rare lately and now, I am pleased to say… Daddy involvement has made a return appearance. It is so wonderful to have another hand involved in our schooling. It gets lonely being a solo teacher at times.
We took over the basement this time and sprawled out everywhere…
That included our bedroom for reading time. I love how they go off ON THEIR OWN and share this joy with the younger ones.
Zander and Gavin even helped Nana with dinner. HAMBURGERS made by my brilliant boys.
Emanuel finished off his first journal with some wonderful final pictures.
