I feel like my life is tumbling forward at a frenzied pace, and there’s no way to slow it down. My kids are getting big, and another one will be joining our little family very soon. Sometime I worry that I don’t do enough for my kids, that I don’t show them how much fun life can be. I’m all they’ve got to show them the best childhood possible. So this is a little list to help us remember those things that make being a kid so great. I can’t wait to start checking it off.
- go to the beach and build an awesome sand castle
- stay up late
- sent up a tent inside and sleep in it
- go strawberry picking and eat strawberries until we’re sick
- find a new park and have a picnic
- stay in pajamas and watch movies all day
- catch a fish
- catch a salamander
- catch a crawdad
- have a princess lemonade party
- make a lemonade stand and sell it for 10 cents a cup
- play basketball
- play mummy tag
- finish an awesome puzzle and glue it together
- get in a food fight
- have a water balloon fight
- learn to hula hoop
- be in a parade
- make homemade ice cream
- collect cool rocks
- make a zoo out of play-doh
- go to the Zoo and look at all the animals
- have a red day and wear only red, and eat only red foods
- go to a waterpark
- have a party for no reason at all
- splash in lots of big puddles and get sopping wet
- buy fresh flowers at the farmers market
- watch an amazing sunset and let the kids take lots of pictures of it
