castles & bridges
In case you were wondering what my boys were doing earlier when I was writing my confession blog.. they worked on this castle and bridge (yardstick) from the time my oldest got home from school until almost bedtime, with a couple breaks in between to eat and sword fight with daddy. :) We had these cardboard blocks when I was a kid too and they get used more than anything, but still manage to withstand being step on and knocked down over and over again. Whoever originally created these was brilliant! The first 3 photos are from today and the last was from last week. They are so proud of their work, I just had to share it with you! :)

Their castles are so elaborate. How cool!!
ReplyDeleteErin, I think you have a really interesting site and it sounds like you have a lovely family as well. I train kids in sword fighting, which is why I found your post. There's a competition on my site this week to win a pair of padded kids swords, so I'll just point you to the entry page if you want to have a go for those boys :) It's down the bottom of this one http://www.chinese-swords-guide.com/learn-to-sword-fight.html
ReplyDeleteI'm also a school teacher with a grandson who we expect will be home schooled. I think home schooling is an excellent idea for parents who like to be at home with their kids.
