  • Let's have a "Throw Back Thursday" that is good for our sense of humor and our soul. Who remembers humorist Erma Bombeck (1927-1996)? (If you don't know her, now is a good time to get acquainted.) We found this website with some of her best quotes. Enjoy!

  • Snuggle up with your toddler and enjoy Goodnight with Dolly - new bedtimes stories each Thursday night read aloud by Dolly Parton (scroll down on the page for past readings)

Something to do while staying at home:


There is rain in the forecast the rest of this week. Use that time inside to learn a new craft - Macramé. Learn your knots with shorter pieces of inexpensive yarn. When you're ready, move on to jute or sturdy cord and make your own plant hanger for outdoor use later.

Time to take a nature walk. Kickapoo Creek Park is open for hiking when observing social distancing. Read the article - print the scavenger hunt sheet and go for a walk. If you don't want to go to the park, you can also find most of these items in our city and county parks and maybe even in your own back yard!

Something to do while staying at home:

We know this has gone on for WEEKS now. Our little ones especially may have become restless and need a little help to stay at their best. Try creating a Reward Chart for each one. Customize it with chores they can do, homework goals, and acts of kindness they show to one another. Then, give them a reward to work toward with their good behavior and helping around the house.
