For those of you following our blog for the past year, you may remember last year's challenge. For those of you new to us, let me bring you up to speed.
Last year was our final summer with one baby. I wanted to make it fun and exciting so I set a goal for our family to cross off during the summer. I hate the thought of missing out on all the fun things summer has to offer, so by making this list we were able to have a great fun summer. Though Z Step was a bit young for lots of it, we still had a great time crossing items off our list. There were about 5 that we didn't finish, but those were all for reasons beyond our control.
This summer is a bit different. We now have 2 little ones to entertain, and are still settling into life in America. So our list is a bit different. There are many things on this list that will be much easier to cross off. Lots of books and activities to accomplish! but what's summer without some education? With a 2 year old who is constantly developing- we have to keep that little mind sharp! And for E Step? Don't worry- we will incorporate him into as much of these activities as we can!
