We had so many fun educational outings or days while my mom was in town it was like doing school without even knowing it.
We started the week by going bowling where we practiced math facts (adding the pins) and got some physical education. The next day we went to visit the Jamestown settlement which was wonderful and only 45 minutes away. The kids loved it and were amazed at the replicas of The Susan Constant, The Godspeed and The Discovery. The Native American Village was Lucas's favorite because he was allowed to touch everything and even play with the items.
The next day mom and the kids had a Home Ec day and made cupcakes for Annika's birthday and then we all worked together to make a wonderful turkey dinner so we could celebrate Thanksgiving a bit early while mom was still in town.
Friday was Annika's 9th birthday and the kids went to The Little Gym for a Parent Survival night which must have been great fun because they slept like rocks that night.
Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving, I'm sorry this was a week late in posting but it's been crazy here.
