Today’s Activity:

Oktoberfest is sweeping the nation, or so I’m told.  This will be my first year participating in an Oktoberfest activity and I’m excited about everything except the Bratwursts…yuck!  Your community just might have some sort of organized Oktoberfest activity going on and you and your kids should attend.

Note:

If you can’t find anything then take some time to teach your kids about Oktoberfest (don’t worry, I had to look up the details about it too) and end the night with bratwursts, or hot dogs if you prefer.  Also, check out our Community section, you may just be able to find some information on an Oktoberfest event near you.

Evaluate:

I’m thinking I really need to invest in a melon baller.  My kids are still having trouble eating their apples but they don’t seem to mind just licking off the caramel.  I think I may have cooked the caramel a little too long because it is really hard.  I’m not sure if we will make it to tomorrows Oktoberfest event because the kids are starting swimming lessons and we have a few other things going on but I’m still hoping we can make it up to snowbird for just a few minutes.  I hope your caramel apples were a hit with your little ones!
