Haylee is constantly telling me she is bored. Like all day everyday. We go to story hr twice a week, gymnastics, open gym, parks, swim lessons, play dates. It's my own fault because when we moved here to Spokane I didn't get her back in preschool. But we have moved around so much, after this move I just wanted to get settled a little bit before throwing her back in something. But the past couple of months she has really been hit with the bored bug. I try to do a craft with her everyday while Hunter is sleeping and it's the highlight of her day. We always try to do something school wise too because this little smarty girl needs it and loves it. Yesterday I told her to write the whole alphabet lower and upper case. I thought it would take a good 20 mins or so if she could even write every letter. She was done in 2 mins tops, both lower and upper case. Sooo... we try to get very creative around here in our playtime so she won't be bored all the time.

This was a great activity that lasted awhile. Potato sack racing! Looks like Hunter got a head start on this one.



Since we do so many crafts around here sometimes I run dry on ideas. Thank goodness for pinterest!!

Remember my parenting class years ago where they told us kids are supposed to be bored? That is when they get creative instead of you doing it for them. It hasn't worked for me, maybe for you!
