Peep and The Big Wide World!

If you've never seen an episode of Peep and the Big Wide World, than you don't know what you're missing!  You don't have to have kids to appreciate this show...to LOVE this show!  Here's one of my favourite episodes!  

Peep of a Different Colour

Party Time!

 

 

 

Peep lives in a tin can and loves to explore the big wide world so I gave each child a tin can filled with a list of things to create a scavenger hunt as well as the items themselves.  I also crocheted a small peep for each can!

Peep pattern can be bought on Etsy: http://www.etsy.com/listing/28082975/peep-and-the-big-wide-world-set-crochet

The scavenger hunt idea came from the Peep and the Big Wide World website: http://www.peepandthebigwideworld.com/printables/pdf/Peep_safari_childactivity.pdf

La Pasta Bella

My parents spent a few weeks in Northern Italy in September and they brought me back a true taste of Italy.  Pasta from Venice!  I have to say, not only was it beautiful but it was like no pasta I have ever tasted!  Delizioso!!

Isn't it Gorgeous!! 

Spaghetti alla Bolognese

Thanks Mom and Dad, it was delizioso!!

This is a video of Sophia when she was 3 years old, trying on her Halloween costume for the first time.  Notice the Chipmunk that she's talking to in the bird feeder!  So cute, she makes my heart ache!
