Social Distancing day 43: Balloon game and yellow flowers

We tried another idea from Wren's school today.  Neither kid was really into it but it was maybe 15 minutes of entertainment?  Meh.  The idea was to make a couple of paddles out of paper plates and Popsicle sticks and then bat a balloon back and forth.  Neither of my kids had the attention span, interest or coordination for this one.  It was worth a try.  I had the supplies in the bag from school.  I think if they were a little older or if Wren was a little more coordinated it would have worked.  Stuff is still hanging around, might try it again some day if we don't pop the balloon first.




The big win of the day was taking a walk.  I tried to get the kids interested by saying we should check on the yellow flowers.  They were just starting to bloom last week and should be really pretty.  It worked and Wren got all excited about climbing on some rocks so off we went.  It was a lovely day.
