On Top of Spaghetti

At camp today, we had backyard fun with spaghetti which we cooked and after dividing it up into four bowls, added food colors. 

You can use drops or gels!

       The grands used the colored noodles to create pictures.

PJ made a windy ocean with a sunshine and a fish.

Ty is creating a house in this picture.

Mia made a picture of herself and a flower.

We played a game called Spaghetti and Meatballs.

We used a colander (spaghetti) and newspaper balls (meatballs).

The grands took turns throwing the balls and catching them in the colander.

 Good catch PJ!

 Way to go, Mia!

 

Run, Ty!

Great job, everyone!

For snack today, we used these ingredients and created...

Mmmmm Yummy!

 faces that displayed emotions!

 I love the scowl...

 and the frown.

 Say cheese!!!

Ty was puttin' on a happy face!

Mia made a surprised face. 

 Notice that there are no eyes as they are supposed to be under the hair! 

The grands took some marshmallows and tested their

coordination skills!

 PJ is a good shot!

Good job, Mia!

Pops lead the grands in the Bible story about how Jesus

fed the crowd of 5000...

and then he took them on a ride around the yard.  I love the black crow hat!

After we read this book, we listened to it on CD!

And then...

 the grands drew faces...

cut out the pieces, attached paper clips...

and used magnets to move the pieces around as they created faces with emotions. 

'Til next time, it's grand to be a Grand!
