The middle of April we had Adventurer weekend. The regular teacher was gone so I helped out with getting supplies and teaching the honors. Not sure how I get myself into these things but the honors for that weekend ended up being Insects and Zoo Animals - of all things. One activity was making a little terrarium for crickets to talk about where they live, what they eat, etc. The lady at Petsmart tried to talk me into keeping them for pets but the kids promptly released them in the church parking lot that afternoon. We also did some fun crafts like making a lion's mask and a lady bug from a rock.
The weather is suddenly nice - that means ice cream. We made our first trip to the local ice cream shop and made a complete mess of things, as usual. The girls' cousin had her 2nd birthday this month so we got to see more family. We miss that during the winter when everyone is in hibernation.
