2013 Summer Activities 9

Two more weeks before out summer vacation is over. The temperatures outside have been grueling and we have been keeping ourselves busy indoors, although our morning hour or two we always spent outside. In fact, the kids initiated our morning bike riding. It was good for me too, to get some exercise.
Getting ready for the ride.

The  kids dug out some old sock bubble-snake makers from last summer and got busy right away.


Andrew's toy keyboard broke one evening and we used the virtual piano as a plan B.

All on their own, they raided my craft drawer and filled an afternoon with 'making stuff'.
We also did some 'organized' craft learning.
A jolly day spent with friends.

This week Andrew spotted a birds nest with birds eggs in it and a fawn that came to drink at our pond.

I discovered that Andrew really likes games that involve math problems.
We also had 'a tent day'.
