Aaaahhhh Summmer! Endless hours of fun, exploring, and adventures! Here are a few of our adventures thus far:
Feeding the ducks at Liberty Park:
Cherries are delicious and our faces show it!
Running away from it can be just as much fun as playing in it:
Some of our fun as been inspired by things I used to do with my students. Trin and I reviewed fractions and then used, whole, half, and quarter pieces of biscuits to make Biscuit Bunnies. (An AIMS lesson- Activities Integrating Math and Science).
Okay, it may have come out a little lopsided, but she tried to make them all equal size when she cut them! 🙂
There have also been some pinterest inspired activities. I’m telling you, five minutes on pinterest twice a day is all you need to find some great ideas!
Fizzie fun! Baking soda and vinegar with food coloring:Pom poms and marbles are apparently endless fun for a toddler…
They roll around pizza pans like nobody’s business:
They’re fun to pour in and out of tupperware and pitchers…
And salad spinners are the ultimate in marble/pompom fun:
Washing their babies has become a regular beat-the-heat activity around here:
We’ve also had grand adventures outside including picnics and scavenger hunts in American Fork Canyon:Lilly specializes in finding sticks, spider webs, and ROCKS!
Other fun has included:
Sleepovers:Cooking:
and playgrounds:
And when we’re all tuckered out, movie time:Lilly is apparently writing a review of what she is watching. She’s gone through several drafts:
That concludes our summer family update! Thanks for checking it out!
I love Trin’s hair! It is so cute! I make those Biscuit Bunnies every year, Hmmmmm…maybe you are the one I got the lesson from!
Thank you!! I’m so glad that lesson continues to get used. I LOVED all the AIMS activities we did for Fun Fridays! 🙂
Love Trin’s haircut also, and man have they both grown!! Lily is becoming quite the little lady, at least in appearance lol And of course Trin is looking more like a teenager every day… still a ways to go but man! Andy has his work cut out for him that is for sure!
I know..I’m in denial that she will be SEVEN on Wednesday!! That doesn’t seem possible!
