Show & Tell Day

We're trying out a new homeschool group this year. It gives the children lots of opportunities for social activities, field trips & community service projects. Many things are divided by age while others mix the age groups.
Bugsy and I recently went to the 'Show & Tell Day' for K-2. I believe 7 or 8 children his age attended. There were a few younger siblings there as well. His show & tell was to perform a couple of his TKD patterns. It worked perfectly as he had class right before this.

He was first to do his 'Show & Tell'.


One of the little girls demonstrated Origami.

She brought paper & taught the kids how to make a puff ball. ( I think that's what it was called. I'm not really sure. Lol.)

These were the items she brought in to show the group.


Our friend, N brought in his roller coaster card collection & his photo calendar.

This little boy made a food chain & explained it.

After pizza & Show & Tell the kids played games together.

Musical Instruments Bingo.

Hungry Hippo

This was a big hit with the boys. They whacked those poor hippos like mad! LOL! See their little faces?

It was a very fun afternoon. Bugsy was very happy to have his buddy N there and made some new friends too. We are looking forward to the Christmas party in December.

Valentine's Party

On Feb. 11th we had our homeschool Valentine's Day party. The kids had a great time. I was in charge of preschool games. I spent most of my time trying to keep the kids entertained for 2 hours and making sure they didn't wander. I had one Houdini that was gone every time I turned my head. Whew! There were games, crafts, pizza & lots of treats. And of course Valentines!

Bugs playing before the party started.

Elvis had a really good time playing card & board games.
Later he played Keep Away.

Boo Bear hung out with her TN best friend.
(She says she has a MA best friend & a TN best friend.)

Sweet Pea played games & hung out with the teens.

Time for pizza!


Dessert!

Boo's buddy

Princess was SO good. Since I was leading the preschoolers she spent most of her time in her pack n' play. She was "rescued" for awhile by Leah & later by Jen. Thank you, ladies!



I have a few more pics from our party but I can't get them off the card right now. I hope to figure it out soon!
