I thought I'd share a few of the things we did today. One daughter wanted to go to the Science Center today. That would have been a little costly, so we found some free things to do!
They created things with clay that we already had at home. There were a couple pots made and a many kitty sculptures. They are now drying. Tomorrow they will paint them!
We went for a bike ride near our home. We tried to play on the playground...but too many bugs!
They have watched some TV. A pbs show and Gilligan's Island that came from Netflix. Last week we had the Brady Bunch here.
Finally, I made a bubble mixture from water, corn syrup and dish soap. I put it in a bin out on the deck. We found some string and plastic butter tubs to make rings out of. The bubbles were huge!
Oh, and we also made banana bread together. Yummy snack and good practice in the kitchen.
Wow...quite the day and we didn't really plan any of it. It just unfolded. I hope all you mom's and dad's are having fun with your kids, too!
Another Free Day with the Kids

Fun, fun, fun - I love it! My kids are hoping for sun tomorrow so we can play tennis again.
