Meanwhile, on Friday I introduced Builder Boy (a.k.a. Andrew) to Roblox! Which is wonderful for his building mind, but I am useless on it and had to watch some youtube "how to" to figure out how to play. Well, once he got the hang of it his enthusiasm caught to his sister - and so I let her set up an account and play on my computer while he played on the home computer and there they were building their worlds pretty much all day!

On the drive there we listened and tried to sing along with all the songs on Multiplication by Heart - and she did well with all her skip counting song up to 6. I think that is wonderful, considering it's nothing we "sat down and taught". . . it's been entirely fun and easy! We laughed and laughed the whole time.
Today, Andrew was working on a list of "Things to do that are fun" in response to his question/whine about what he could do. Having him make out a list was so good - even though I had to prohibit him putting "Fighting with brother" on it, but we finally came to the point where he listed "do science experiment". Well! that was all the encouragement that I needed because I *had* an experiment that I've been waiting to do with them. The idea came from Janet's post, so out we went to "play" with baking soda and vinegar. Andrew decided that he wanted to make a volcano. It's still drying, and we think tomorrow we will be able to make the "lava" flow.
What fun it's been!
