Colors!

On Thursday, January 14 we will:

  • Read Sky Color by Peter Reynolds.
  • Make coffee can paintings.
  • Practice "blowing colors." Idea from Seattle Mama Doc
    • We tried this in the car today. We were just about to pull into the grocery store and the kids were on the verge of "loosing it" and we weren't even in the store yet!!! So we tried blowing colors and it worked! I even had the kids blowing into each others faces and mixing colors, it was a silly way to let out aggression towards each other after spending the afternoon in the car side-by-side. Then we were able to do our food shopping, no problems :)
  • After helping children find their breath, moms will practice a way to stay calm during moments when we need it most. From Learning Motherhood.
