If there’s one word to describe our family’s weekly routine, it would be “go go go!” Technically, that’s three words, but you get my point ;)
But then… winter hits. Whomp whomp. Anybody with kids knows the struggle of GERMS throughout winter. I can safely say I’ve wiped enough snotty noses to last me a lifetime, haha!
Whenever a bug hits our house, it slowly works its way through the family – most recently Everly came down with something, then me, and then Eleanor. Jeff has been spared so far, but I wouldn’t hold my breath on that one ;)
Sometimes it feels like we’re stuck at home for weeks on end – when does spring start again?! This year we planned ahead for winter and revamped our play room for those days (weeks?) when we’re homebound. Because despite being a bit under the weather, my girls ALWAYS have excess energy to burn.
Enter… the perfect play room slide!
And to complete the “kid’s gym?” A basketball hoop!
This Little Tikes basketball hoop has been a fun addition to our play room. We have it set low enough for Everly to play, which means Eleanor is at a perfect “dunking” height, haha!
Our basketball games don’t quite follow all of the conventional rules, but sometimes we keep score on the chalkboard easel. The girls always win, #obviously ;)
The best part about these two fun winter “energy burners?” They can both be taken outside this spring – and let’s hope that’s sooner rather than later ;)
Tell me, how do you burn off your kiddo’s energy during the winter?
