Today’s Activity:
Tomorrow is going to be a fun and sugar rushed day so let’s make today a little mellower. Remember how I said to record some Halloween movies on your digital video recorder? Today is the day to use them. Pop some popcorn (if you have it) and watch a movie to get in the Halloween spirit.
Note:
If you didn’t have a chance, or the equipment, to record anything I’m sure most of the “after-school cartoons” will have a Halloween theme. You could always try the video store as well, but they may be all checked out.
Advise:
Tomorrow is going to be a long day and your kids may go to bed late or even miss out on a nap or two. I will be putting my kids to bed at least a half hour early. If you think I’m crazy then at least try for 5 or 10 minutes early. You’ll thank me later. In my favorite things you’ll find the sleep book that I live by.
Evaluate:
I try to avoid letting my kids watch too much TV but my kids definitely needed a day where they just sat. Generally they don’t sit still long enough to watch anything but they made it through 3 cartoons! This was a great excuse for me to sit down and relax with them. It was a wonderfull day for all of use! We even got in our Jammies at 4pm and made it a pajama party.
