What Do You Get When You Cross a Tree With A Sheep?
Now that Azul is in the first grade, homework is a little more difficult for him, and occasionally more difficult for me to understand. Last night while he was doing his homework and I was doing mine (going through his backpack, finding any stray papers, parental notifications and random permission slips I have to sign), I found something that left me at a loss. This is not a masterpiece created in Art class by my seven year-old, but a photocopy of something they were doing in class or a continuation of a classroom project to be finished at home, I don’t know. I asked Azul what it was and he didn’t know, so … baaaa!
I’m sure the easiest way to solve this would be to simply ask the teacher what it is. There is no way I’m going to do that, that would be embarrassing.
What happened on day 13? The sheep would never have humped the tree? Right? Would that make a treep?!? BAAAA!!!
Super Simple, Super Cute Pumpkin Snacks!
This is one of the easiest and most awe-inspiring snacks for kids.
What you need:
Seedless clementines
Celery
A knife
Told you it was easy!
Step 1 – Peel the clementines leaving them whole. This is the body of your pumpkin.
Step 2 – Wash and cut the celery lengthwise and then cut them into three-inch pieces. These are the stems.
Step 3 – Gently push the stems into the top of the pumpkin, allowing them to stick out about an inch or two.
Step 4 – Done.
I’m warning you now, you will become the envy of other parents and “that mom that always brings the best snacks” after this project.
Happy October!
