Our first day back is a trip to the zoo. We will study out an animal for the day and picnic near the animal with foods that animal might eat. Of course my kids plan this ahead of time so they have already started reading up on that animal.
The next day is a pj day and we go for it.
Oh how nice! Have a wonderful day!
