The kids were being a little rowdy inside after we finished homework today so I thought of an idea that I used with my preschool kids a couple of weeks ago. (I am not sure why I didn't do it sooner.) It kept them entertained for an hour until it was time to get ready for bed. I highly recommend it. All you do is tie a piece of string or yarn to a plastic shopping bag and let them fly it outside. I tied it to a silly band for the girls (I thought the yarn would continue to tighten around their wrists.). I tied it to Liam's belt loop. I didn't want them to fly away permanently. They had so much fun. Liam ran in circles almost the entire time. He should sleep good tonight. The girls ended up pretending they were dogs on a leash. It was a beautiful evening to be outside.
Check out the video.
Love this idea! Looks like fun.
