isn't EVERYDAY kids 1st day?! it sure seems like it sometimes! lol.
But today was infact "kids 1st day" here. Where many businesses open up and have fun activities for families to do for FREE! (i love that word! lol).
Here is what we did...
9:40~ made pinwheels at chapters
10:15am~ made jewellery trees at Rona
11am~did an educational scavenger hunt at the archaeology museum, and then made mini clay pots.
noon~decorated chef hats and cupcakes at Loblaws(yum!)
12:45~painted trees at scholars choice
1:15~ got cool aprons and woodworking craft at HomeDepot(were tired and needing lunch so just got them and left)
Next we decided to be bad and grab some lunch at McD's and play at the playplace, but as we sat down to lunch i got a textmessage from a friend that they were at the park and come join them...so we ate quick and drove across the city to the park.
There we had a blast flying kites, climbing trees, playing on the equipment, snacking, etc with friends and a TROOP of kids! lol
We finally got home about 4:30 EXHAUSTED!!!
Now i need to get off my bum and make dinner...wahhhh!!! no fair!!!
(oh and a quick document about the GORGEOUS weather today~~~23 degrees and mainly SUNNY! wowza!) EDITED to add that when i went to grab pizza for dinner tonight at 6 it was crazy sunny and 28 degrees! and now at 11pm it's still 24 degrees and WARM!!! *sigh*

This is going to sound horrible, but we did the opposite - we left the kids at home and went for a nice quiet dinner by ourselves. In our defence, it's been years. The girls thankfully had no idea that there were a bajillion fun things happening all around town for FREE. Shh.
ReplyDeleteThat is very cool. I never heard of a day like this before, hmmmmm.
