Fun activities with the Kids

Time gets away from me and I forget to write what we did! Here's a list of a few fun activities from the past week: Getting Ready for Superbowl Sunday, All About Groundhog Day and Making a Friendship Chain.
Getting Ready for Superbowl Sunday was funny. I had lots of football coloring sheets and had the kids cut out a football. Then they got to pick either the Arizona Cardinals or the Pittsburgh Steelers. I wrote their picks on their footballs. Tanner picked Arizona and Megan picked Pittsburgh! We even pretended to play a game of football. Tanner was trying to make it more of a wrestling match! It was hilarious to hear Tanner's Dad find out Tanner had picked Arizona. ( I think He's a Steeler's fan!) When Tanner came back on Monday, his Dad told me all about the game and how Tanner was rooting for the Cardinals. Very cool!
Groundhog day was fun for the kids. We colored pictures of the groundhogs and I told them stories and then the kids acted out what happens on groundhog day.
Making a Friendship Chain was part of my pre-valentines day activities for the kids. We're talking about friends and what they mean to us....Who are our friends...What do we play with our friends? How do we be nice to our friends?
Next Wednesday is our Valentine's Day party! The kids always love party days! (So do I!)
