I found some pics of an Obstacle Course that the boys made one Rainy Day a few years ago. They took a roll of Painter’s Tape (which is easy to remove from most surfaces) and made arrows all throughout the house – including up and over beds, and through various obstacles. (=
It was a perfect Rainy Day Activity!! First, they got to spend a bunch of time creating it, and then they burned off TONS of energy running it over and over and over again — all while I sat at the table sipping a cup of tea and timing them. It was a win for everyone! (=
Note: I can not take credit for this fabulously fun idea. Riley came up with it all on his own when he was little. He just started creating it and I didn’t even know what was going on until he was partway through taping the arrows on the stairs. Sometimes kids have the best ideas! (=




At my "for pay" job I'm a Marketing Manager in the Yearbook industry - it's pretty fun as far as jobs go. But, what I REALLY like to do is spend time with my adorable boys - cooking, painting, creating, and making a mess. We thought it would be fun to share some of our favorite things on this blog. We hope you enjoy reading about our exploits, and maybe even take the time to try a few of them yourself. (=
