Fall Break
This week is Fall Break for 2 of my 3 kids. Because of the differences in their school schedules, we can’t travel this year. We’ve decided to take a few in-town field trips and spend our days working on some fun fall activities.
This week we are going to skip the educational component that is usually included in camp weeks. While I love the opportunity to teach the kids new things, because school has been in session for several weeks, they could use the break and are really are not in the mood to learn.
Highlights for this week include
- Creating Floating Cheese Cloth Ghost
- Going Apple Picking
- Taking a train ride through North Georgia
- Making Candy Corn Milkshakes
As always, you are welcome to join us. The supply list and schedule are listed below.
