IT'S COLD, WHAT DO WE DO?

So, it is COLD in MI. We had good snow the day after we got there and light snow the following days, so playing outside was done in spurts. Thankfully my brother's family has a lot of toys and Jennifer bought a few crafts for the kids to do since they were going to be couped up inside the house.
The first day the kids dissolved little tablets in hot water and out popped dinosaurs. Audra, Joshua, and Cadance really enjoyed playing with their dino's...Andrew tried to eat his.
The next day the kids tried to put together animals made from little puffy balls. However, we did not have the glue. We bought the glue the following evening. Audra, Cadance, and Joshua were the only kiddos to participate. Audra made a white horse. Cadance made a pink gorilla. Joshua made a blue seal. Audra did hers by herself and it turned out very nice. I helped Cadance and Joshua...I think Audra should have helped them in order for them to come out nice.
The last craft was all Audra and Mom. They took clay and made a giraffe, fish, cat, bird, and turkey leg with gravy...Audra is very creative.
Other than the crafts the kids played really well together. Well, Audra, Joshua, and Cadance played well together and Christopher and Andrew played by themselves.
