Christmas Cookies on a rainy spring day

After so many rainy days with the kids, I ran out of all my creative ideas to entertain them. So it was time to bring out the Christmas cookie kit that I picked up for 50 cents in the Target clearance section after last Christmas. When I saw the cookie kit (good until October 2011), I thought of the 'Christmas in July party' we had when I was working for IBM global services. My kids love Christmas and I thought it would be fun to have some Christmas spirit during summer. I know it's not summer yet, but hey, it was a hit and Kids sang Jingle Bells all day. And here we even had a Christmas fairy's visit.

Here are some spring break activities you can do with your kids.

Celebrating 'Winter'

I can't believe we got so much snow again. Last time when I checked the calendar it was almost the end of February. Oh well, here are some snow day activities my kids did to celebrate winter.

They made a snow man.

Made a family of snowmen.

Licked the spatula.

Pretending to be a snowman.

Made snow flakes.

Made an igloo.

Painted 'The night before Christmas'.

I think we celebrated 'Winter' enough. I'd say it's time for spring. Who's with me?

Oh my, time has flown by!

It was Ella's first day of school in kindergarten. Ella was so excited that she hardly could finish her favorite cereal and she was giggly all morning. She even let me pick her clothes to wear and wanted to look her best for the camera.

Jina was super happy for her sister too.

I'm so proud of my girls!!!!
