On the Friday before Halloween, the kindergartners have "Healthy Harvest Day" which tries to get the kids to focus on eating healthy and living a healthy lifestyle (right before they consume mass amounts of candy, I guess? haha). Each class had to plan some sort of activity and since I volunteered to be one of the parent leaders for the class I got roped into this. Nah, I don't mind it - thereʻs really only a few things we plan for the class each year, so its really not that much extra work. Anyway, one class made healthy smoothies, one did yoga, one made ants on a log, etc. So we decided we'd do some sort of physical activity - we did "pumpkin bowling" and "balancing an apple on a spoon race".
man, those little kids beat the apples up - we went through nearly a dozen apples. The boys are awful. They would hit them with the spoons, throw them up in the air, kick them. Seriously, what is wrong with boys? Its like they have this need to destroy things - ugh. Anyway, its was fun - we were wore out by the end! After we completed all the activities with the kids, I stayed for lunch with Allie for which she was very excited! Mmm... school lunch! Anyway, we, the parents, were saying we should enjoy that our kids love having us there so much because once they get to middle school that all changes!
