Stuck inside

So I realize this is really late but I wanted to share with you what we did this winter when it was too cold to go outside.  I had to really get creative, I'm so glad pre-school teachers blog!!
Valentines Day
We hung pipe cleaner in a borax solution for a couple days and grew crystals



Gwyn's snow-woman

Learning to ice skate at the neighbors

Hop scotch, we needed movement!!

My mom & I hunted these heart ice cube trays down for a school function but then they banned anything not from a professional kitchen so I made colored ice and it was fun to color the snow with it

polar bear kiwi crate (arts & craft kit we get in the mail every month)

water beads and bugs

a tray of snow and markers...

the result!

baking soda and lemon juice fizzy fun

I froze some water in an empty OJ container then we put some food coloring on it.  Gwyn added salt and watched out it melted and the color ran, we learned it was faster to use hot water!  She thought it was cool how the salt made divets and the water made it smooth.

Gwym wrote all those letters for the bulletin board outside their classroom for the whole school to see!

Ummmmm?

Gwyn & I made a dollhouse out of a bookshelf and Grandpa made the trellis/arbor bedroom for the top.  I then made Ken an apartment Grandpa made the stairs and I must say they are awesome!

Bennett also like to join in the fun and this is his 1st haircut!

more valentines day

kids valentines for Daddy
We tried to stay busy and it was hard being kept indoors.  We did do some sledding and skating but it was just so cold the kids couldn't stay out for very long.  So glad it's summer!!
