Daily Activity Ideas 3/18/2020

It an effort to make things a bit easier for folks, I am going to post a few ideas of things you can do these few days that we are all home.  These posts will include a writing prompt, a physical activity exercise, and other enrichment activities I find that seem interesting.  Here is the important part, there is NO right way to do this.  There is NO wrong way to do this.  These are suggestions because I have been asked.  Do one, do all, do none.  Love your kids, do your best.

Writing/drawing Prompt: A big box came to your door with your name on it.  What is in it?  How will you use it?

Exercise: 25 sit ups, 25 push ups

Activity:  Cooking,  No bake cookies https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchen/peanut-butter-chocolate-no-bake-cookies-recipe-2015085. Do the math by doubling the recipe or cutting it in half.

Reading:  I LOVE read alouds for all ages.  This is my favorite.

Most of all have FUN!!
