Winter pastimes
January 25th, 2008 at 1:19 am (Winter activities, Playing, Learning)
Today it was really cold and we didn’t get outside which is usually part of the daily routine. Today proved to be bitterly cold with a nasty windchill which was not conducive to ice skating or any other extended activities outside.
Despite the weather, the kids seem to find plenty of activities to keep them busy in the house. It is rather amazing how much they can do with just a little creativity and a lot of Legos. There was more reading, Lego building, more skateboarding in the lower level and more dancing to High School Musical CDs.
C worked on math, W worked on writing, I worked on laundry, and H worked on potty training. He even sat on the toilet today with assistance but then quickly dismounted. He is now sleeping in his “big boy” underwear and has told me that he won’t be going potty for another five years!
We’ll see about that!
