Eva’s school had a Martin Luther King Jr. Tea today. It was open for parents to attend. I took Andrew with me because there is nowhere else to bring him, but for the most part he was good, except he did go and grab a couple of plates of cookies. Eva did a great job with songs and her line in the skit. It was a cute event. Could have been in a bigger space but it worked out overall.
After the event Andrew and I went over to Target to pick up a few things and then we were leaving to go get lunch and he told me that he needed a bathroom. So, I swung into Toys R Us because that had the closest bathroom. We walked around for a while and then headed to lunch. We did lunch at McDonald’s and then headed home where he took a nice long Friday nap. I managed to actually close my eyes for 15 minutes. Much better than last week.
When Allison and Eva came home we watched Girl Meets World: Girl Meets STEM. The episode was about girls and Science. It was very well done. I enjoy that show so much.
The Summer is coming to a close (I can’t tell because the heat and humidity is getting unbearable, and for the record I LOVE the snow) and it is time for the kids to head back to school. Eva will be heading to second grade and Andrew into a twice a week program for 3 year olds. I won’t be getting much of a break for personal time except for those 5 hours weekly. But, this isn’t about me, this is about the kids and all the learning they will be doing while at school or more importantly how Netflix has some great shows to ignite their imagination and passion for learning. Yes, shows on Netflix. Netflix has a bunch of great shows for Science, Technology, Arts, Engineering and Math (S.T.E.A.M if you didn’t catch that). And two great new shows debuted this month (Project MC2 and DinoTrux) and as luck would have it, one was perfect for Andrew and the other for Eva. Although, Eva does like DinoTrux as much as Andrew.
