Love the hats. Like the box too other than Gordon would not work at our house. What kind of box did you use? My 10 yr old son would love to make one in 3 or 8. Also would be perfect for him to hide those small things in.
I have been trying to find new things for my kids todo during the summer. their ages are 7, 9, 10 & 12. Our weekends are full of racing and I want to get them todo other things then wait for the weekends. We decided together that they are going to skip day camp this year. We have marked our calender of certain things that they want todo here in town or nearby.
My 10 yr old is high functioning Autistic and is very into pirates right now so one thing that we are going todo together is build a pirate ship out of popsicle sticks. This is going to be a riot. He loves to draw so he is already planning it on paper. His 9 yr old brother is planning out his too. Neither of my girls are interested in doing this so grandpa is building them wooden rooms to decorate instead.
One thing that we are doing is keeping a reading journal thru the summer and they will have to write a report on thier favorite book that they wrote. My 10 yr old does not read with me at all. He tells me he can't read, and does not like to have me read to him. I have been told by his school that he is getting there with reading(worse subject)but that reading gap is slowly closing for him. So I figured that we are going todo this. His teacher knows that we are doing this and is going to "assign him" this for the summer.
