Cloud Dough Inside on a rainy day..

Made cloud dough this day when it rained, brought the baby pool inside to help contain the mess..

We also made rice krispy treats into balls and decorated them.. yum!

Ice Cubes

Yesterday I froze things in ice and asked Tyla and Arlee if they could figure out how to get the things out.. Arlee figured it first, Tyla tried to pick them out with her fingers...

Then the filled up cups and an ice cube try with things of their own

And to end a long ribbon glued onto a broken jump rope handle which provides hours of entertainment, actually I probably should of made two..

Finger Print Sheep and Home Made Bathtub Fingerpaint

We made fingerprint sheep and they both actually payed attention and followed the directions..

 

Then tonight I made homemade bathtub finger paints, which they both decided to use a paintbrush for instead of their fingers.

1/3c no tears soap

1 tbsp cornstarch

food coloring

This is Tyla's Rapunzel>>>>>>

The paint

 

And Arlee's painting!

Cookies for breakfast?

Tyla did these all herself, including mixing them up and dropping them onto the cookie sheets, granted they were a little oddly shaped but they were still good! :)

3 bananas, mashed
2 cups quick oats
1/2 cup raisins
1 egg
1/4 cup milk (I used almond milk)
1tsp cinnamon
1tsp vanilla
1 TBSP honey
Bake @ 350' on greased cookie sheet 15 mins
