Busy days, fun with friends, awesome field trip, some crafts, learning about nature...
We talked some more about nature and made a bird feeder. We are still waiting for little guests to arrive, it's really warm outside so they aren't so hungry I guess, even a squirrel haven't visited for a few days.
We read "Who's Been Here" by Fran Hodgkins- a lovely book about our animal neighbors
We have a tradition- 10 days before Christmas we have little elves coming to our house, if children are especially kind to each other, they get small gifts from elves. D. made a special sock for little C. so elves can put some gifts for her. He already tried his hand in needle felting the other day when we made ornaments for the tree, this time it was his big project, he enjoyed it very much.
We read "The Twelve Days of Christmas" illustrated by Jan Brett
Yesterday was the most fun field trip with our co-op to The Little Shop of Physics in Fort Collins. D. had a great time trying all the experiments. They are having an open house event in the end of February.
Today D. and I went for another roller skating lesson at Skate City, D. looooves these lessons.
We made a little pine cone elf to guard our tree and bookshelves. It was a bit challenging because pine cones that we found have tiny spikes on them, but it's a fun project. Inspired by this craft.
We read Tiger's Adventures by Nick Butterworth- another favorite for my kids, especially little C. who's very much into tigers these days :)
My mom was in charge of yummies these past few days, tomorrow it's back to the oven I go, kids are begging for more cookies :)
We watched
While You Were Sleeping
