We rarely have any kind of "screen time" at Little Treasures, but the one exception is for "explore.org" and in July and August (the best months) we sometimes watch the big Alaskan Brown (Grizzly) bears feeding on salmon at Brooks Falls in Katmai National Park. We watched yesterday for the first time this year and the kids liked it almost as much as I did! :) (They were asking again today, but we didn't take the time for it.) Yesterday we were counting up to 15 salmon jumping in the air at the same time trying to make it up the Falls and the bears were having lots of easy meals.
Avi and Hudson were running to the mirror being silly and looking at their teeth. Then of course they wanted to look at my teeth; "Gary, can we see your golden teeth!?!" Haha! Yup! We also played outside this morning and Avi and Hudson were stretching up and putting the little balls in the basket. I told Avi to put it in the basket while jumping and she almost did on the first try. Nora watched them for awhile and then she tried it and that was so cute. She tried to toss the ball in the basket, it went over her shoulder, and then she jumped. :) Too cute!
I love what the kids were doing in the last picture!! They'd been watching the dump trucks and if you look close at the dump truck picture you'll see the "cones" blocking the road. (Just to the left of the dump bed.) They all started grabbing blocks and Avi said, "We're doing cones today Gary!!" Then Hudson said, "We're blocking off the road!!" I love that! They understood that part of the work and acted it out in their own way.
