Before the start of the school year, every forum and every mommy group that I was part of had one major discussion: lunchboxes for kids. It's been so many years, yet thousands of moms are still looking for the most useful lunchbox for their children and asking recommendations, especially for one that keeps food warm.
On this day of birthday countdown for kids, we baked Eggless Sugar Cookies together. I have been baking with them since they were 3 years old (check out our YouTube videos), so it's not a new activity for them. But the different thing about this day's activity, especially for their birthday, was using cookie cutter to make cookies (earlier I have mostly made chocolate chip cookies that are quick to drop and bake), and then they made the cookie icing first time, and then piped it onto their cookies...of course as I guided them alongside. And they were excited at each step to bake and decorate their own cookies!
On this day, their note said:
For your countdown craft activity, I'm going to give you a paper birthday cake...
Use pompoms and paper and stickers for frosting, and let's see what you make!
On this day, in the note in their birthday countdown drawer I wrote:
"When you both were born, it was a special day, it felt like a dream,
For your countdown today, let me give you hot chocolate with marshmallows and whipped cream!"
Birthday Countdown: ◙ 22 days to go: Puffy birthday-themed stickers ◙
On this day my kids got a simple, small, but cute gift: birthday themed puffy stickers
Kids love stickers in all forms, colors, shapes, and sizes. My kids have a box they keep all their new stickers in. And especially the cutest prettiest stickers never get used and they keep saving it for later. I think they got that from me. 😁
Birthday Countdown: ◙ 23 days to go: Pass the Parcel game ◙
This was the first day of their birthday countdown. On this day my kids played Pass the Parcel for the first time. This game is also known as Hot Potato. In fact, Pass the parcel is a fun game to play when having an afternoon tea-party, evening dinner get-together with family, children's birthday party, on any occasion such as New Years, outdoors at a weekend picnic, or a casual meetup with friends and family. Adding forfeits for pass the parcel game is a great idea to make it challenging and interesting for people of all ages.
For my twins' 6th birthday, I planned a 24-day birthday countdown. The idea was to give them one thing each day - a craft, a game, an activity, a thing, an edible treat, or an experience, and repeat. I wrote rhyming notes for each day and put the notes in the little drawers of the advent calendar shadow box that I turned into their birthday countdown shadow box. Each day my kids had NO clue what they would get because I planned and prepared everything when they slept, and they received a new surprise each day. They loved their birthday countdown so much, and bring it up in our conversations so many times, that I can tell it was one of the best decisions I made this year to make not just their birthday but their entire month memorable. In this post I'm sharing what we did for their birthday countdown.
Many schools in California reopened for in-person learning since this month of August. Which also means thousands of moms now are looking for lunch box ideas for kids. In this post I'm sharing the lunch boxes I packed for my kids this month.
Scavenger hunts are fun for kids, and if you have followed us for some time now, you might know how I have often planned several scavenger hunts and treasure hunts for kids. But this time, instead of an indoor activity, I created these outdoor scavenger hunts.
