Fun Learning Day

Our day started off with creating green slime. This was a hit with the kids. Forget the scientific whys and wherefors of it all, mixing glue, water, Borax and food coloring equals hours of fun for my two. After they played for an hour, I made them stop to play a fun math game with giant dice. You roll the giant dice, answer, and then do a funny thing, like "hop like a bunny" or "say 3 foods that start with P while you dance". It was hilarious and educational. My sweetie husband bought me a PC Scrabble game yesterday. So, our language arts was done on the computer playing Scrabble against each other. Later, we took a walk through the acres of woods behind our house. (Not our land, our neighbors) We collected leaves to identify, "discovered" an old tree house, and found an old abandoned soccer ball. We made our way home and played around with the soccer ball for a while. Then we enjoyed the crisp fall day, just basking in the windy, but sunny day. Such a delicious day!
