What do you do with the letter Q? That was my question last week. So I decided…not much 😛  We did talk a bit about quails and queens and wrote our letters. But that’s about it. Instead I decided to change up the whole week. I wanted to do some behavioral experiments. And I wanted to keep us entertained during a long week inside while Justin was gone. So I did a theme for each day of the week. Sadly Thursday and Friday some plans fell through and we had to take it a bit slower since Abram was sick. But we still had a fun week. Here’s what we did.

Mystery Monday (everything was a suprise for Rebecca):
painting
math w/ candy (then eat the candy of course)
lunch – egg tortilla quesadilla
snack – triple ice cream cone
plaster foot mold of the kids
bake manna
watch a tv show (a special treat for her)

Tasty Tuesday:
baking – apple raisin date bars
breakfast – breakfast cake
lunch – tea party – tea (warm milk w/ honey), finger sandwiches, bars, cucumbers, wear a dress and hat
dinner – salmon cakes (one of her favorites)

make s’mores (first time she’s ever had one)
watch part of her new Veggie Tales movie

Wacky Wednesday (based on the Dr. Seuss book):
move tables/chairs/toys to odd places…she got to find all of the wacky things
odd meals/utensils/dishes
shoes all over the house
dress in summer clothes
watch the rest of the Veggie Tales movie
ice cream w/ surprises inside (a few pieces of candy)
lunch – chicken salad Waffles, frozen Watermelon, White cocoa (like hot cocoa…warmed milk with a little white chocolate), White beans

Thankful Thursday:
We were thankful for family. I got to talk to my sister in the morning…sure was great to chat to an adult!
My parents visited – Rebecca LOVES when any of her grandparents visit.

Fun/Funny Friday:
dance/listen to music
make ice cream
PLAY!
