My kids had a blast during train week. Hands down, their favorite thing, was using trains to paint. We put paint on our paper and then used the wheels of the trains to run it across the paper.

Even Ty joined in by setting up different train track areas in the house for the little kids.

I struggled with items to put in our E letter box, but a quick post on Instagram and followers came to my rescue with a few suggestions! I added an envelope and an eraser after I took the pic. We really enjoyed our field trip, but it was COLD. We only made it about 1/2 around the farm in over an hour but I was impressed the kids lasted as long as they did. We […]
