Let me tell you that Candyland is a lot more fun when you use puppets instead of playing pieces. It's hilarious as they walk through Candyland commenting to each other and getting stuck in the licorice. The downside is that they eat WAY too much candy while they are playing, so after one of our games, Maddy got them some good food to eat and talked to the puppets about the five food groups. It's nice to know that she is picking something up.
Then she carefully placed the ones that can stand up in her shopping cart...
And took them on a tour of the house. They saw the entire house and thoroughly enjoyed the occasional flying they had to do to get up and down stairs.
We even got out on the new bit of the Jane Addams trail. It's really nice and Maddy can fly on her bike. She planned carefully for the ride too. She packed a yogurt drink and a cheese stick in the bag on her bike to give her extra power.
In between all that, there was still time to finish the pajamas I have been working on for her. They are huge, but they are also soft and comfortable... and she will be able to wear them until she is 13.
I love the big soft jammies!
