It’s baking week! Bring whatever your kiddos want to bake, and let’s get busy in the kitchen. I’ll try to buy some of these paper doilies on my grocery run tomorrow, so we can make these glue-gun snowflakes. (Or here in printable, if you’re not a video person.) If anyone has another simple craft, please …

BYO activity day! Whatever your kids want to do – puzzles, games, art. We’ve also missed a bunch of kids’ outdoor games due to weather or lack of immediate enthusiasm. Let’s rally + roll through zombie tag, ghost in the graveyard, four square, +/or whatever else the lovely weather outdoors allows. We’ll also celebrate National …

M – November 28: Stop-Motion
Stop-motion is back by popular demand! Let’s bring personal devices for picture-taking + stop-motion creation, along with any props/set design options. I’m not sure if we’ll have a “show” or just go person to person, show-and-tell style. Anyone can weigh in on this via group text, which I renamed “Wildling Mamas” instead of the list …
CANCELLED – Wildlings Today, but Group Swim Option!
Happy Thursday! Once again, due to the forecast of wind + continued snow, we’re cancelling today’s Wildlings at Prospect Park. If anyone’s interested in swimming instead, Brandon’s family is heading to the Lakewood Link (1295 S Reed St, Lakewood, CO 80232). They have open swim from 11-5ish, so that seems like a decent indoor option …

M – November 14: Spray Paint + Pickles
Spray paint art today! Two kinds in play with the same basic ingredients: spray paint + water. Whatever the weather, we’ll be completing these project outside over a tarp, and we will need to take turns. I will bring one tarp. If anyone else has a tarp to contribute, it’ll be colorful afterwards! Dish soap …
M – November 7: Cardboard Neighborhood
It’s that time again! Jennifer + Monica are organizing the pickup of bicycle boxes for the kids to use. Each kid will have one large box, plus whatever else you bring, to create a structure for the town. Bicycle boxes are a thicker material and difficult to cut into small pieces, so other cardboard is …
M – October 31: Halloween Smells + Yells
It’s costume time! Please bring a costume – nobody needs to wear it the whole time, but let’s dress up. It’s supposed to be lovely outside, so we’ll set up there until afternoon. Our activities: Ghost in the graveyardWe’ll start the day by trying to find ghosts. See the ghost? Run! Donuts on a stringWho …
M – October 24: Sweet Science
Sugary experiment week! The experiments are broken up by family, so we can take turns being in charge. Your kids can also lead, if they’d like. I added a link to each experiment for a quick reference point, but you don’t need to stick to that. We’ll go through the list in this order:(1) mentos …
M – October 17: Terrariums
Build a terrarium out of whatever materials you + your kid love. These can go like an indoor fairy garden, or they can harbor live plants, or a thousand things between. Mason jar terrariums. If you have all the tweezers, a spice jar terrarium. The dream terrarium (life goal). Bring a jar to use + some …
M – October 10: International Potluck
This week, each kid/family is representing a country and sharing a recipe from it. Please name your dish in the country’s language (or an approximation) and in English. If you’d like to research more about the country to share in an informal presentation (of the child’s choice), some suggestions are below. Decorations, flags or costumes …
