Nothing educational for Christmas, Mia insisted. Only fun stuff.
Absolutely, I assured her.
A rock polisher, a collection of labeled rocks, a rock pick, and a book of trails in Oregon where you can find rocks, plus a guide on how to recognize them. Fun, for sure, and not a bit educational. Friday Field Days are going to be fun, especially the trails that you can only get to in summer with a canoe, and places that are best hunted by inner tube down rivers.
Anytime you can take a dog with you, it's not educational.
Rumis is a cool strategy game, but not a bit educational.
We set up a new fish tank with a water testing kit that tests PH, hardness, nitrates and nitrites. All fun.
Daddy got a math calendar from her, heh heh heh. He has a math problem that he has to do EVERY DAY, and he has to show her his work. Heh, heh, heh.
Dear Ineka, John, and Mia,
ReplyDeleteWe had a GREAT time too. Thank you so very much for inviting us to share Christmas in your happy home. Everything was lovely! Especially being with you.
I am so glad you enjoyed your gifts. We loved ours!
You might think of many questions you would like to ask about the information in the daughter book, also the pictures. I will be happy to answer them no matter what they are.
Love you, and love your crab sushi! Yummmmm!
