Something I’ve noticed being around my kids 24/7, is that my child like perspective of the world is slowly coming back (not a bad thing). My creativity and resourcefulness is improving and to be honest, I’m glad none of my jobs worked out because being around my kids is more rewarding, fulfilling and definitely 100% worth my time. They show me the kind of world that I have only seemed to lose sight of over the years and I’m very happy I get to experience this imaginative outlook once again.
And with it… Comes plenty of ideas 🙂 But for now, we’ll start here.
Monthly Themes
What I mean by this is we can do this by subject (Month of May will be history themed and June will be Science themed). Or how about Types of animal themed (Month of February will be about which animals are involved in sexual cannibalism …. just kidding…. or something much more appropriate like July will be about ocean animals and October can be about Mammals) and every day, whip up a national geographic video about your themed animal pick.
