Here they are counting their 31 links
This afternoon I sent them out for some physical activity, and they trained to be gymnists on the trampoline. I was pretty impressed with their moves.
The kids also spent a considerable amount of time collecting, counting, and cleaning rocks. Then they had me write on a plastic sandwich bag how many rocks they had: 101
Looking at all the things that kept them happy and busy, non of them were expensive plastic toys. With Christmas fast approaching, I am extra observant to which toys they actually play with. Apparently all they need is paper, scissors, rocks, markers, and a plastic baggy.

It's usually pretty easy to entertain kids with simple items :)
So true. And they learn more from those things than they do a Barbie or some game that only does one thing.
wait til they are old enough to discover the power of duct tape and spray paint!! Maybe it's just a house full of boys that does that. My boys fashion gobs of swords(the oldest can use the hand saw) and then tape up the handles--and spray the entire thing--and viola--you have days of entertainement--theri next project fashioning a go cart out of an old bike trailer and extra bike parts--if only they could weld--lol
it looks to cold to be dressed like that!!
it sure is cold here, hope you're enjoying lovely weather!! :)
