Rachel discovered a fun activity today. In a fairy book she got for Christmas there was a page where you could trace the fairies on a thin sheet of paper kind of like wax paper. She loved lifting the paper up to see that what she had drawn looked almost identical to the professional picture on the page before. While she was doing that, Ford and Ruby and I had a blast playing with Scotch tape. So simple, yet so fun. We just kept taping pieces of paper together and making a fairy walkway to go with the fairy bridge we made. Teenagers love duct tape, but toddlers and preschoolers prefer Scotch tape!
We did some math, some reading, some coloring, and played a lot of games like Baby Horse (where Ford gets doted on by his sisters and talks like a baby even though he's supposed to be a horse), New Fairies (where they get to choose their talents), and, of course, read some fairy books.
Around 11 we were ready to get out of the house, but it was muddy and looking a little overcast, so we just went on a walk around the block. We were able to meet up with Vanessa and her crew for our walk, then we stopped by and checked on the neighborhood garden, and came back to our house to play and eat lunch.
Another great day!
