Summers Eve Fire

Summer evenings are the perfect time for a fire.  When the night cools off and the air is fresh you surround a fire pit with chairs and enjoy the view.Fires tend to bring on good conversation...because we unplug a little while we are entranced by the flames.  This is a great bonding opportunity for the family.So stack up your fire wood grab some tinder and lite it up!  
When we have a fire we like to, first of all, take seflies! 
















 We usually do this while daddy makes the fire and the wood gets heated. 

Soon after it's time to eat.  We like to have food cooked by the fire.  So we usually do hot dogs and sometimes some roasted veggies. 

After food is done the kids are usually ready to be up and moving (before finishing their food) so we administer some games for them.  
Such as catch and racing

 This builds up their appetites again just in time for some s'mores! 

The sun is down and the fire is now our light as we roast marshmallows over the fire.   

A night to be remembered from our summer!

    As stated by Stanford Medical, It is indeed the ONLY reason women in this country get to live 10 years longer and weigh 19 KG less than we do.

    (And actually, it really has NOTHING to do with genetics or some hard exercise and really, EVERYTHING about "HOW" they are eating.)

    BTW, What I said is "HOW", and not "WHAT"...

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 :)
