Lil Equestrians

Mr. B's mom told us about Lil Equestrians. A fun morning program for the littles (age 2-5). Learn about farm animals in a very relaxed, hands on way. Chickens, Oreo the bunny, two Arabian horses, dog and cat are all available to the children. When you are waiting for a turn you can paint a pony, ride the zip line or bounce. Too bad this fun camp is moving to Penryn next month!

Warm Up to Two

Tomorrow Mr. C turns two but we won't see him. So we celebrated a day early with some favorites: cupcakes and balloons. 

 

Love this little guy. He is sometimes quiet with the girls, an energetic outdoorsman and always a serious investigator. 

Target Run

The girls are always appropriately enthusiastic when we need to make a target run. Today we went for a new box for the beans (these things have wowed me with their popularity- I will never mock the "sensory bin" idea again). 

So glad I had this big helper along!

Inspiration struck and we were able to practice a few other very important lessons: 1) finding a good bargain 2) finding a good shoe. 

These clearance beauties will be donated to our church youth group shoe drive. 

Bean Box

Earth Day

Lights on, lights off. 

Paperless water coloring out doors. 

Bird house painting. 

Grass crowns with bug stickers. 

Product Recommendation: Marble Run

First things first: any visit by the "package man" aka delivery truck drivers is a post of happiness in and of itself. The children are nearly frantic with anticipation. The Littles are happy with air pockets and big paper filler. 

The older kids look forward to the real thing. Today: Marble Run. Colorful and easy to put together like Legos, but interchangeable enough to keep things entertaining day after day.

Wish Flowers

Hello Spring. We love your popcorn trees, blooms, and even weeds. Park time is fun running wish flower to wish flower. 2s aren't wishing yet, except maybe unknowingly for more of these.
