Okay, okay. The thing is that Mom Camp has been going on, it’s just that I have been a bit too busy to blog about it. So, I’d better do some catching up…
On Day 22, we needed to stay close to home because the maid was coming. I had to come up with an idea that would keep the kids engaged all day but not result in a crazy mess or get in the way of the cleaning ladies…hence Board Game Day!
We started out with Clue.
Next, it was Guess Who.
We played Brain Quest Smart.
In the afternoon, we hit the pool. 
After the pool and back at home, I put on Clue The Movie.
The movie went off and The Captain came home and it was time for a family game night–please note this only the 3rd time we have actually had a family game night. 
The Search for Pillow was not exactly a hit with The Princess. She did a lot of complaining this it was “lame”–Ouch.
Meet the Lalaloopsy Girls, was cute and explain who each on was and what made her special.
Party Time was a cute story about each ‘Loopsy bring something that they made to a fun little party!
And,

and we glued his bat on him!
The boys also had fun playing a fun game Cinco got from his grandmother for his B-day. You throw soft cloth baseballs at a target and depending in what you hit, you move small plastic men around a ball field. The boys abandoned the ball field and players and more fun throwing the balls! But having fun is the point so who cares?

We also played with this cool book. Cinco did a great job making the thumb print people and The Princess had fun too. Although, her thumb prints were a bit more like blobs…

This was Cinco’s reading for today as well.
This activity book worked out really well for us. It was more than just a coloring book, because heaven knows we DO NOT NEED ANOTHER COLORING BOOK. Instead, this offers mazes, puzzles, codes, and even a simple math problem or two. What I really loved about this little book is that worked for both the 4 and 7 year-old. It offers games and puzzles with three levels of difficulty, so both kids used the book!
“Play-doh” style Angry Bird kit was hit with both kids. It comes with three cans of “doh”, two molds, and some heavy cardboard panels. The kids were able to construct their own angry bird sets and had a blast trying to knock them down. Plus, I really liked the consistency of the Softee dough better than “play-doh”.
Cinco loved this book. Like the Star Wars Lego books, this one has pages where you have to find the right sticker and fit onto a certain page. There are also pages with scenes that your fill out with stickers. It has tons of character stickers, Darth Maul, Darth Vader, Luke, Leia, Han… It is very much like the Lego sticker books–so if you like them, you will like this.
