Week in Review (June 4th)

We had a fun week at our casa last week.  We spent a lot of time getting back into the swing of things after a few weeks away from the normal routine.  We continued our work on our scriptures about self-control. 

K enjoyed working on his Go Together cards and we tried some water transferring activities with a turkey baster.  At first, I gave him a medicine dropper, but the time it took to move the water was much too long to hold his attention.

Matching work with Winnie the Pooh Go Together Cards

Water transferring

G also enjoyed a water transferring activity with a sponge.  This activity definitely had her attention for a good bit of time.

Glancing over at K

Both K and G enjoyed bubbles and play-doh. 

K has some Cars wands, and G has some princess wands. 

K pretended to build a building with his construction vehicles.  G ws content to create flower imprints with her accessories

We also had a little science fun.  After watching Sid the Science Kid in an episode about water changing into ice and vice versa, we froze some small toys in a bowl, and then the kids used salt, warm water, and ice picks (i.e. butter knives) to melt the toys and get the ice out.  We will be doing this again soon.  I talk more about this activity in the post here.

Just getting started here

M is still entertained with the pom tub and his cups. 

Over the weekend, the children enjoyed an impromptu slumber party while my friend was giving birth to her fourth sweetie pie.  All of the kids involved loved that!

All and all, a great week!
