A few weeks ago we watched my Cousins Mia, Max and Talia for a week while my Uncle and Aunt were in Hawaii. It was a very Crazy week. Adding 3 more kids and a Dog to the mix = Very Crazy. All the Kids were good though, I think the hardest part was finding things for them to do. I mean they can only watch TV/Movies and play Video games for so long.
So here are some of the things we did.
Went swimming at Our Pool.
When you go swimming with 5 kids... not enjoyable, you feel like you are always watching, yelling or saving one of them.
Luckily some of my family came to help.
Slip-in Slide.
with Nacho Libre.
nachooo
Watching Talia and Mushu fight over the Pacifier.
Bubbles... lots of bubbles!
Thanks Sarah for the Idea... It Entertained them for Hours!
Eatable Play-doh
Even I was Entertained for awhile.
Flower Pens/ Toy Pens
Max wasn't to into the Flower idea so we taped some of his toys to the pens... it worked.
Went to my Brothers Football Game.
When Gavin can't figure out who is holding him... he just Stares.
Made Rockets.
Film Caps (free at Photo departments) + Water + Alcaselser (Knock off brand) = Lots of Fun and Hours of entertainment.
Smores at Mimi and Papa's Fire Pit.
Watching Max teach Ava some Ballerina moves.
Yes... our week was very Crazy We are definitely NOT ready to have 5 kids!... Ever!
