.summer fun.

I've found a few fun activities and crafts to help keep us busy and happy. One of which was this one where you die rice with food coloring and rubbing alcohol (sets the color) and then pour in a pan to play with afterwards. It was a great two step activity. Brynn also loved to squish around the color in the plastic bags when we were making them. She LOVED playing with it afterwards. It kept her busy for at least a full hour. She got toys and tiny cups to play in it too! I put it in a bag afterwards and have gotten it out a few times since. They boys have also had fun with it too.

The kids set up stand with punch and drawings for sale. They did this a few days in a row and I think their best day was when Rachael's visiting teachers came and bought some too. I supported them everyday with a guaranteed sale to Mom. I think they were hoping to make more money! :)

We also found a recipe online to make bouncy balls. Now, nothing about the final product screamed "bouncy" to me? But it did make a ball shape and the reaction was neat. That in itself was great, so it turned out to be a fun thing. I had everything at home for it including Borax.
