Happy Monday!\u00a0 I hope you had a fabulous weekend.\u00a0 Here’s ten ways to connect with your kiddos and make some memories this week — in pictures!<\/p>\n

1. Decorate your yard for the wee folk.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0 Play basketball together in the driveway or park.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0 Find some fabulous old or abandoned site to explore together and talk about what life may have been like there, way back when.\u00a0 Be sure it’s safe and you have permission!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0 Get out a bunch of craft supplies and odd bits from the recycling bin and challenge the kids to create something fabulous.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0 Let the kids use your clothes for a fashion show.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0 Use plastic bags to make t-shirts<\/a>.\u00a0 Just don’t be too upset if the add-ons peel off by the end of the day!\u00a0 (Note: we used the original tutorial that Teacher Tom used the first time, but this link takes you to his updated post with new info so perhaps you can have better luck than we did with permanence.)<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0 Stage a treasure hunt through the house and yard.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0 Go hiking in the woods and see what sorts of treasures you can find.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

9.\u00a0 Spend the day at a new-to-you park, botanical garden or other outdoor area you’ve never explored together.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

10.\u00a0 Take pictures of each other jumping in the air.\u00a0 It’s harder than you think and great exercise, not to mention fantastic fun.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
