Sunday's Activities

We ended our weekend visit at my parents early, so that Kevin could attend his first Adventurers Club meeting.

Kevin told us that he wanted to join Adventurers because “my whole class is in it.” It turns out that about a third of his classmates, along with about a dozen other kids are in his Sunbeam group (second graders). He really had a lot of fun, and can’t wait for the next meeting.

I tried to convince Justin to join the Little Lambs club, but he told me that “Two classes are enough, Mama. Three classes are too many.” Smart kid – he already knows to not be involved in too many activities at once.

Kevin’s instructor said that Kevin was very creative. Each of the kids were given a CapriSun juice pouch to drink. When they were done, Kevin and two of his friends took their empty juice pouches, pulled the straw over halfway out, folded the pouch in half lengthwise, then folded the pouch halfway widthwise. They created cell phones. The kids ‘talked’ to each other on their ‘cell phones’ for the rest of the meeting.

In the afternoon, Brian took a nap while Kenton took Kevin and Justin out to ride their bikes and scooters. Kevin rides his bike very fast now and Justin tries his best to keep up on his bike. Since our driveway is a bit steep to pedal up, the boys sometimes need a little help. We had a relaxing and fun Sunday.
