Nature Sticky Sensory Hunt
Sometime between the morning nap and afternoon lull comes a nature sensory hunt. Late morning has me (and the boys) yearning to get outside. It is before the extreme heat in the summer and the perfect time for spring. This sensory nature hunt is exactly what you need when you have kids at home all year.
CHALK COLOR HUNT
Calling all toddlers and preschoolers! This outdoor game for kids is for you! With sunny weather and school out for summer, I decided to break out the chalk and get everyone moving outside. This musical scavenger hunt is better than I could have ever expected. Not only did my two-year-old love this game, but my four- and six-year-olds did as well. Grab the chalk, and head outside. YOU MUST PLAY THIS OUTDOOR GAME!
