Boredom Busters

For MOMS: My kids say "I'm bored" a million times throughout the summer and I don't have time to schedule every minute of play during a day. SO....We made a coffee can into the "I'M BORED" CAN. In it are lots of little pieces of paper, with an idea of an activity they can do around the house for fun. A few examples: Make puppets for a puppet show. Play charades. Play with playdough. Make superhero costumes, with paper plate masks. Create a restaurant. Do mad-libs or puzzles. Trace each other with sidewalk chalk. Make a town out of boxes. Stay tuned.....I'll let you know how well this works.

My daily verse that blessed me today: "Listen to me...you whom I have upheld since you were conceived, and have carried since your birth. Even to your old age and gray hairs I am He, I am He who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you."
Isaiah 46:3-4 NIV

Oh yes, and.....GO MAVS!!!!
