I created a list of activities for the kids to do, labelled it "summer bucket list" and hung it on the refrigerator. As the activities are done they get checked off and at the end of the summer we'll see how many they've done. Here are just a few of the things they've done so far.
We visited a "new to you" park.
Collected, washed and painted rocks.
Made ice pops.
"Invent a fruit smoothie" was on the list but we modified it and did milkshakes instead. We actually did this one a couple of times!
Go on a picnic. We did this after visiting Winterthur. Zach was looking pouty in this picture because we said he couldn't eat until he used hand sanitizer and he didn't want to use it.
We caught lightning bugs. Here he is showing me one that he caught.
So far this one is my favorite. Today Zach swam in the pool with no floatie! He started out by jumping to Aunt Kelly.
Then he would jump in by himself and swim to the side.
He even swam from the deep end to the shallow end. All with no floatie!
Very exciting day at the pool for us especially since I was beginning to think he would never ditch the floatie. Stay tuned for more activities they do.
