It is starting to get warmer and like my mother before me, I believe children should play outside whenever possible. It's amazing to me how well my two boys play together, even though Ave is 11 and Skyler is 2. Avery has such a big heart, I never doubted his ability to be the best older brother Skyler could ever ask for.
Still, sometimes they just run out of things to do. I totally understand this and I try to come up with fun activities for them. So, the other day I got some bubbles from the dollar store. I forgot how much kids LOVE bubbles. I could hear Skyler laughing with more enthusiasm than I've heard in a long time. I had to make them come in for dinner and then they went out again to play some more, completely on their own.
I think next week we'll get some sidewalk chalk :-)

Bubbles are a lot of fun! My 15 month old son really enjoys them as well, and our dog will chase them trying to eat them. Gymboree makes a tube like blower that makes it easier for the little ones to blow bubbles themselves...if your little boy has a hard time. http://www.amazon.com/Gymboree-Bubble-Play-Learn-Bubbles/dp/155263888X
