What are we up to today?

[GreyishDays]

After a verrry screen heavy day yesterday, I am full of optimism to do some worthy activities. We’re aiming to be light on the academics in general.
So today I have a ‘signs of spring’ printable for them to do.

Err then I might make them collect sticks for a wee fire one evening.
We have seeds to plant but they don’t seem arsed. Might attempt origami ninja stars.

What are you up to?

So far we have made a fish tank out of a cardboard box, and glued some pictures of fish in it. DS is now watching finding Nemo, while I drink coffee and work up the energy to clean the mountain of paint and glue that has enveloped my table.

DS's only 3, so it's more about keeping him busy then education, but we counted the different types of fish, so he might have learned something.

This is a great little one to do if you’re still looking at spring and like a bit of origami - not technically origami but folding paper/water experiment my girls love.

Does anyone have any art and craft tips?
I have some crayons and pencils already on hand. Suggestions on activities welcome thanks in advance. This week we have gone on a walk, painted some pine cones and sketched the birds and cat at home. Tomorrow we are hoping to do sand art if possible or water fun. I also have a fun science lesson planned for Friday on water.
