Blustery Day Activities!

What do you do with a house full of kids on a blustery day?

First we started out with spring cleaning,
we cleaned out the drawers and closets

and got rid of clothing and shoes that did not fit.

Then, we watched the movie Nanny McFee Returns.

Then the boys were up to their own devices,
and I was pleasantly surprised by their choices.

I-Man teaching J-Man a song on the Piano

Six Rounds of Uno

A Discussion on Whales

And Sharks. 

The Book Sea Creatures and a search on the google

helped resolve the argument that whales eat sharks and sharks eat whales. 

I-Man found a video of a shark eating a dead whale, Yuck!

Drawing game of "What Next." 

They started with a dog in the center of the page.

The dog is eating an alien spacecraft,

 which is above the ocean with a pirana,

Nanny McFee is flying on top of the page,

eating ice cream.... and so on and so forth. 

It took about an hour to complete.

Finally, What started out as blowing some bubbles for Mr.Mr.

turned into blowing bubbles with our hands

catching bubbles

blowing big bubbles

Fill the pan with bubbles

Try to blow bubbles inside other bubbles

Bubbles are beautiful.  Pop!

I am so happy they played together for the majority of the day

and genuinly enjoyed each others company.
