Saturday, April 4th. We decided to take our very own Front Steps Portraits to remember this crazy time. We got showered, dressed….it felt like such a normal day which was good for all of us. Mike and I picked one outfit for them, they picked an outfit and we broke out their jersey’s for a third outfit change. I set up my camera to capture all of us together and I took the rest. We had so much fun with it and it kept us busy and occupied for over an hour…a total win!!!
Life is so odd right now and it’s becoming a challenge finding ways to occupy the kids that don’t involve video games or iPods. We mad a big master list of things to do as a family or for them to do alone and we’re slowly making our way through that list in between them having time on electronics because balance is key to having them not feel overly stressed during this weird time in their lives.
Other things on our list include:
Lots of walks/bike rides
Take a run with the kids
Family workouts
Boardgames
Play catch outside
Obstacle courses
Scavenger hunt around the neighbourhood
Complete Puzzle
Shooting competition in garage
Mini Stick games
Start 2020 family yearbook
2020 Covid-19 Time Capsule
Start a family storybook where each family member adds a new page each day
Spring Cleaning
Make dinner together as a family
What are some things on your list? If we all share we may just get enough of a list to get us all through this time. Let’s all help each other out and make this time more manageable.
Stay well,
