I found this great idea of ice cube fishing!
The night before I took a ice cube try & colors me some cubes... when the cubes dissolve in the water- waahh-laahh! NEW COLORS. OK so this is seriously like her fav thing to do now. Once the color cubes dissolve she gets "plain" ones & she finds her bath toys & Ariel swims in a swamp :) Seriously kept her playing for an hour-- at this age, playing is learning so I am all about it!
We also decided to "Poof paint". In a house of girls we have bath poofs all around this house. It was pretty fun!
We did some more water play with 3 jars of primary colors & I gave her 3 empty jars & she got to mix her heart away. This is when the whole mixing colors to get other colors really clicked for her.
You know at the end of the day there is nothing I love more than watching her wheels turn. I just wish I could bottle up this time I have with her. I feel like it is slipping through my fingers. As I put her the bed the other night I looked down and no longer saw a baby, she is such a little girl now. I am proud of my 3 year old & I pray to God that I am always this proud. I have recently started reading the book, "Bringing Up Girls", wow is it opening my eyes, it seriously makes me want to keep her in a bubble for the rest of my life. You know, I was never the "cool" kid growing up, never had a ton of friends, my parents censored what I could watch & listen to... I look back & thank God that I had parents who cared enough to shelter me. So my parent-friends out there who, you are no longer cool, you are stupid & don't know anything-- I commend you, you are doing your job! One day they will thank you, (they maybe 30 but hey it will happen!) LOL!
Ok sorry had a little sentimental moment there...
We got our official shamrocks in the mail & planted them! Come on Clovers!
Oh & this was a huge hit!! The $1 store has these cute shamrocks, I bought a ton of them knowing that I would find something they would be good for...
HOP-SCOTCH!
We finished up the week with the letter P: Pepperoni Pizza Picnic in the Park
Love when we get a warm day to play outside!
