We love to make messes!! or be creative! One morning we made valentine's. Livy decorated hers and was excited to learn how to shape hearts from square paper. Afton and Millie were still hard at work gluing and cutting.
Bruce came up with this game re-enacting his favorite part of the day feeding calves. Gross! No kids or calves have been adversely affected by this game. And Bruce had a ball with the warmer conditions indoors and willing sisters.
For a while Aunt Alena has been trying to grow avocados at home. Livy obviously the very observant child noticed and when I had an avocado a while ago she immediately put the pits in water to try her hand at growing avocados. I found the cup in the window soaking in the sunshine a while later and was impressed with her gardening know-how.
She and Milie were worried about their strawberry and blueberry plants they had planted when the weather got cold and windy again. I asked what they had planted and where and come to find out they had saved the pepper seeds and planted them by their window outside. I taught them how plants only grow their own kind not just what we want them to grow. It's gonna be a fun year gardening with them! They have very active imaginations, dreams and lots of energy to channel. Now for the weather to be pleasant again so we can get going on those projects.
