Our Search For Indoor Fun

It seems that the entire month of January has been FRIGID and we have had several days with temps in the single digits and low teens and even a few days of negative wind chills. We also got several inches of snow this month but it was too cold to let the boys go out and play in it. We've been trying out some different indoor activities to keep the boys occupied on the weekends.

Here's Chibi's Indoor Playground: They loved driving the various cars around.

 

  

 

 

 

    Monkey Joe's Bouncy House & Arcade: This was a really fun place. They LOVED the arcade games - especially since we won a bunch of tickets and they were able to "shop" for little trinkets with their winnings at the end.

 

 

 

 

        

 

 

                                            

KidzPlaza Indoor Playground: They LOVED this place. It had inflatables and lots of "forts" to climb up into and a big slide that dropped you into a ball pit. Evan is considering this place for his 6th birthday party.

 

 

 

 

  

 

 

They loved the laser lights that were flashing at the entrance/exit of the center. They kept trying to "catch" the lights.

 

 

 

 

 

Evan's Kindergarten Party

 

Evan's Kindergarten class had a Winter Party last Friday and Tom and I both got to go. The kids played some games and then were given some snacks and a gingerbread cookie to decorate with icing, sprinkles and candy. It's really interesting to view Evan in this environment, away from the daycare kids that he grew up with. He seems to be a lot more reserved and shy in Kindergarten but some of his wackiness came out at the party -- probably because he had both of his parents there. His teacher was very complimentary of him and he seems to be doing really well there and is learning so much!
