Scrabble

Today’s craft project. Take one game of Scrabble (from freecycle!) and one sheet of magnet paper. Cut paper into small squares. Enlist two children to peel off the backing and stick magnets to Scrabble tiles. Put on fridge. Spell away!

Scrabble on the fridge. Fun for all!

Want to hear something sad? The kids have no memory of those letter magnets we used to have. Want to hear something happy? Watch the videos below! They are hysterical!

I found them here while I was searching the blog for a picture of the letter magnets to show the kids. I’ll show them the videos in the morning. I’m sure it will refresh their memories. Lex is about two and a half in these videos.

Roller skating

When the family is in town we like to hit up the local roller skating rink. This time Alan, Rosy, and Joyce joined us!

e&J

Joyce taught Eve some of her mad skills. Well, she tried. Eve is still working on the basics.

Baby came too. This was my baby when I was a baby!

r&l

Rosy and Lex. Lex was working on speed, but probably should have been working on balance! He took many more tumbles than usual.

Joyce, crouching and skating backwards while taking pictures. What can’t she do on skates?! :)

j&e

The dynamic duo!

Eve is more interested in conversation then refining her skating skills. They look like they’re out for a walk on a lovely day.
