Trina bought a subscription to Kiwi Crates for Mina. Once a month a box of creative materials arrives by mail. Mina loves “Mina mail” — when picking up the package at the complex office Mina knew immediately which package was hers.
The first activity Mina and I did together was making a sailboat. The boat was very simple yet fun to make. The base was a foam shape with a slit for the mast and another three in the rear for the rudder. The kit contained paint to decorate the sails, but it needed 24 hours to dry so we decorated two sails and left the third one plain (until the next day) so we could take our boat out to the water fountain right away. It sailed quite well!
Mommy and Mina made a kite today. An amazingly simple design that worked really well. Mina had a wonderful time running around with her kite. Pirate Gramma had to give chase a few times, and even got that kite once!
