For
her 15th birthday, Cori Clark of Elkhart had big ideas of how she
would spend it with friends. She began months ahead thinking about
what she wanted to do and sharing her desires with her family. The
plan had to include Kona Ices for all her party guests. When the
coronavirus put a halt to large gatherings, Cori and her family
hatched another big plan that included a Kona Ice truck parked in
their driveway and a parade of cars! Cori's dad tells the full story
in today's edition of Lincoln Daily News.

It
is that time of year again when storms are featured in the weather
forecast on a regular basis. Just a reminder of the difference
between a watch and a warning. A storm watch means all the
ingredients are present for a storm, so a storm is possible. A
warning means that all those ingredients have come together so a
storm is more probable.

Lockdown splash out: British brothers dig

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!
-
For all our stay at home
parent/teachers and students you can take a great field trip to
a local museum right in front of your computer. View the
three part field trips of the Lincoln Heritage Museum at Lincoln
College. Hosted by Anne Moseley and Ron Keller.
-
Sunday is Mother's Day and it can still be
a very special day for mom in spite of the stay at home orders.
Instead of taking her out to lunch guys, get in the kitchen with the
kiddos and make her a special brunch/breakfast. Here are easy,
kid friendly recipes to choose from.
-
AND REMEMBER if you are not sheltering
with your mother, give her a call!
-
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.
