Week 2-Camping/Dinosaurs













Our second week of theme was focused on camping and dinosaurs. This week we set up our little tent and tunnel inside for the kiddos to play in. Isaac loved crawling down the tunnel and Vivi loved reading and playing in the tent with her flashlight. Some of the hightlights of the week included having Ellen and Aaron over to play. Ellen enjoyed a tink flashlight of Vivi's that they put on a show with inside the tent. They also sent camp postcards to their cousins to tell them we'd miss them for camp week. Vivi also got into dress up with Ellen and ended up doing a camp cheer for daddy that night. We also retrieved a long lost toy from my sister's our dinosaur! Isaac loves sticking his hands in the holes and slobbering on the balls. Wednesday was the most fun heading over to the library to get books on camping. It was even camping theme week there for storytime! How perfect! Then we went to see "Ice Age Dawn of the Dinosaurs" with nana and papa. Lots of fun! Thursday we went for a dinosaur fossil hunt in a shady sandpit near my sister's. Unfortunately, Isaac picked up a little headcold so plans changed a little for the weekend. Friday we moved the tent to Vivi's room and let her "camp out" in there. Saturday night we ended up grilling hotdogs and cooking marshmallows on the grill for smores. Vivi really enjoyed those! Overall it was a fun week. I also got a little whiteboard that I put our plan for the week and a verse for the week with our theme. Vivi's taken to decorating the bottom half. Enjoy the pictures of my little camp cheerleaders, my crazy dino man, and fun smores.
