We had a simple scavenger hunt around our cul de sac. We collected leaves, dandelions, and rocks, and counted garbage cans, mailboxes, and butterflies. I was really surprised to have found 7 butterflies during our search. Alex found two of them all by himself. I was so proud of him. He just pointed and screamed. It's also amazing how easily entertained the kids are sometimes. They loved it!
Afterwards, I broke down a few boxes in our garage and the kids happily played swords with the styrofoam and paper packaging. Our timing was great too because the kids got a great view to see the garbage truck pick up the trash in our neighborhood. They were awe struck. Again, my kids are easily amused. It was a good day...

"Mommy, we are going by ourselves. Stay right here. Don't come. We will be back but I won't go past Jordyn's mailbox."
I usually let them play freely in our cul de sac, but they know they can't go further than our neighbors mailbox.
