SolBe Families,
It appears that today will be sprinkled with Sunshine—thank goodness! If you did not get a chance this past weekend, what a wonderful opportunity to get outside for a stroll or even an exciting scavenger hunt!
Beanstalk is "where curiosity grows." They are baking up homemade biscuits from 6:00 PM – 6:30 PM. The class is free, but would require advanced registration. There is also an "under the sea" activity from 1:00 PM – 1:30 PM if this does not interfere with your "siesta."
If you are needing something to combat the "witching" hour…do not forget our partner "TLC" in Belmont is hosting "book time" at 5:00 PM Monday-Friday. Zoom info can be found here.
Project of the Day
Infants & Toddlers: DIY Fabric Bucket Top
Another Fave from The TinkerLab
"If you're looking for ways to mix up your baby playtime routine, you might enjoy trying this simple activity with materials you may already have in the closet and recycling can. I cut a hole in the lid that was wide enough for her to drop a hand into. Then I sat back to watch her grab pieces of fabric, …and pull them out! The focus was incredible and reminded me how serious babies can be about their work."
