Farm Unit Study

art activity

This past weekend I had 5 preteens hang at my house for an evening in order to celebrate my 11yr. old daughter’s birthday. One thing I do when having a group of  kids over is to try to have at least 2-3 structured activities available. This helps keep things a little calmer (though with 5 […]
