Last Sunday, Gerrick bought, built, and played with the LEGO Droid Escape kit.
He and his daddy also built and played with an original battle arena:

Early in the week, he built a lava pit (blankets and pillows) in the living room and played around jumping over it while listening to me read aloud. (I always cringe when I hear parents complain that there children won't sit still while they read to them. So what?!)

We walked over to our neighborhood creek on Wednesday and spent some time exploring. You can see more creek pics here. Among other things, we saw snakes and a really big worm.

One night we went out to dinner. The kids' menu had lots of puzzles and games, and hence, Gerrick discovered Mad Libs. He thought the concept was hilarious and was thrilled when I told him I had two Mad Libs books at home that I bought at a thrift store about a year ago. He and Rick have been getting lots of laughs out of them. (Oh, and I guess he's learning about nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, etc.) Want to play? There's an online widget!
What a fun week!
ReplyDeleteI'm totally with you . . . kids on the move can still listen to books being read to them! :)
I loved Mad Libs as a kid!! Will have to check them out again with Princess.
That looks like a ton of fun - and thanks for mentioning the Life in an Instant linkup too; I came from 7 Snippets and hadn't heard of that other one, but now decided to join! :)
