- At the beginning of each month, I use Pinterest or my own imagination (but usually Pinterest) to get ideas for activities we might want to do during the coming month.
- Once I have my list of possible activities, I write them down in my planner so they are all scheduled out. I also decide on the themes I want for our weekly treasure baskets and jot those down too.
- At the beginning of each week when we are to do our grocery shopping, I look over the activities we have planned for the coming week and add any necessary supplies to our grocery list so I can just pick them up when we go shopping.
- Do the activity :) (This is the fun part)
- After the activity, I make note on how much he enjoyed said activity (I usually judge this by how long it kept him entertained. If he is happy for 15-20 minutes I know the activity is golden).
- At then end of the month, I look back over the activities we did and choose our top 4 which we then repeat during the last/first week of the month.
- Repeat and enjoy :)
So if you were getting worried that we had abandoned the blog, have no fear. We are just busy repeating our faves from the month (and I don't want to blog the same activity twice!). So stay tuned, new activities will be coming next week.
