National Safety Month

Today we were off to Daddy's favorite place, The Clubhouse. Every month they have a kid's workshop where the kids can build something from scratch (well actually Mom and Dad do most of the building). The kids look forward to his each month. Since October is National Safety Month there were fire trucks, police cars, etc. for the kids to explore. They had a great time.




After the kids explored for a bit it was time to put on their aprons and start building. This month's project was a fire truck. Definitely one of the easiest projects we have made. It did use a lot of nails though. I started the nails for Chloe and she pounded the rest of hers in. After a couple of hits with the hammer Aidan decided he would rather eat his popcorn than build so Mom finished his truck for him. Brenna slept through all of the banging, if you can believe that. Got to love the Ergo Carrier.







When we got home we got busy painting the fire trucks. This was the first time I have ever attempted a painting project with Aidan. He loved it of course. He was so disappointed when we were done. Chloe loves any opportunity to paint. Brenna looked on from her jump toy.
