Unexpected Valentine

Shhhhhh!

ADDED February 12, 2010

Hearts are the traditional symbol for Valentine's Day, of course, and thankfully, they are easy to make.  Even boys like to make Valentine's hearts, we've noticed. This is the time of the year that hearts and lovey-dovey-ness are not too yucky for any kid!  Well, those things are tolerable.

Today, in honor of Valentine's Day, give your kids some free craft time to make an original, creative, and unexpected Valentine.. . .




Knock and Spell

A fun way to learn spelling!

Learning to spell words can be a difficult task, but with a little creativity you can make the formidable enjoyable.  I really have my daughter to thank for this activity — she created it all by herself.. . .


 



Years in Review

Remember when?

ADDED February 10, 2010


My son turned nine a few days ago, and my daughter turned ten a month before that.  It seems that kids are excited with the prospect of increasing age, but we as parents are both excited to see our little ones grow and sad to see them grow up so fast.  So, with those two recent birthdays in my rearview mirror, I thought it would be a good idea to share a great memory-inducing activity that is fun for kids and adults as well. . . .




Follow the sun

It can be your guide!

ADDED February 09, 2010


Teaching your kids direction can be difficult. North is always North, of course, but without a compass, you really can't be sure exactly what direction you are facing. But with a few simple instructions and a fun dance, your family can be close to knowing where you are at all times. . . .




Sweet and Sour

A fun game for the car

ADDED February 08, 2010

When we are driving around in the car, my kids like to play a game they call "Sweet and Sour."  I know that this might not be an idea that we made up ourselves, but if your kids don't know it, they might enjoy it.

 
To play, you have to be an astute observer of human nature. . . .
