In Melbourne we are enjoying the second week of the school holidays. In this house we tend to actively live and breathe technology in our lives, so playing noughts and crosses with the boys brought a happy smile to my face today. The joy of such a simple game kept them happily engaged and playing so nicely together. It was nice to put the DS away, it was nice to have the Wii turned off, it was nice to have the TV turned off. Good old fashioned fun, can't beat it! The challenge is to enjoy more days like this.
Now there's a thought. I can't bake bread everyday of the school holidays. We might need to drag out the odd board game {except Monopoly - that just makes me cranky}
ReplyDeleteI dragged out Uno and Connect Four and Guess Who today. We had a ball. In our jammies all day....
