Mothers Day Hike

Mothers day is usually a day I get to choose what we do for the full day.  
With our schedules being ridiculously busy and my husband working this year mothers day turned out to be a little bit different. 

We had a few hours to celebrate me-the mother- and those hours passed way too quickly.  
But in them we did get to do the what I love to do every year on mothers day and that is to hike! 


We were not able to talk all of our kids this year but we still got out of the house and enjoyed the spring weather.  

The sky was overcast which was beautiful! It kept us nice and cool out in the bog.  
There is little natural shade there so the clouds were welcome! 

This was Lady Dragons first hike on her own.  We didn't hike a lot last year because of the difficult age she was at and this year she is a bit too big to carry.  So she was off on her own.  

Mostly she did a good job staying with us and keeping her attention on continuing to move forward but sometimes there was a bit of coaxing from daddy. 

As we hiked Little Dragon picked flowers for me to put in my hair- which was super sweet :) 


We were a little rushed on time so we were only able to hike to the pond and then head back-instead of taking the trail around the pond. 


We did stop for a moment and enjoy the view. 
















And do some yoga 


A wonderful Sunday mini hike!

Elephant Faces

Elephant Faces (masks) We used:  Three paper plates Paint or markers Paint brushes Stapler Scissors Yarn First paint the bottom of the paper plate.  While the kids painted I cut the other paper plate in half for the ears. Using the third plate I cut out the textured part of the plate to make the trunks.   Paint (or color) the rest of the pieces.  Staple them together to make an elephant. Cut out small holes for eyes and small holes behind the ears to attach the yarn. Now that the lesson is over I have the masks hanging in the playroom.  They make a neat decoration. 

Painting With Squirt Guns

We did this as a Fathers Day project, but it fits in outside play perfectly.   I liked this for Fathers because it was an interactive activity for the kids to do with Jerry to celebrate him and the time they enjoy spending with him. I filled 1 gun with yellow paint and 2 guns with black paint.  The squirt guns we used were from the dollar store and had a decently big hole to pour the paint into.  Some squirt guns have itty bitty holes that make squirting paint into the gun very difficult. Taped off the canvas...and made the kids pose Then the guns were handed to the kids and dad.  Instructions were to shoot the canvas not each other. Very simple. Start squirting!   The squirting went on and on.  I refilled the guns a couple times so the activity could continue.     Jerry also took time with each Dragon to squirt with them.  With a Star Wars theme we were looking at having black as the primary color and yellow as the secondar

Mini Story Boards

Mini Story Boards We used:  Foam Cookie sheets Magnets Paper I found the cookie sheets at the dollar store and loved the idea of the kids telling their own stories using movable magnets.   I cut out flowers with the foam (you can cut out any design and use construction paper instead of foam) and little people then stuck a magnet to the back.  I cut out bugs and stuck magnets to the back of those too.    Then I drew little scenes that would inspire a story and put them on the cookie sheet.  One demonstration and their imaginations took off on their own :)
