AnnaBeth got a package of wooden blocks for her birthday. Since we don’t have many toys up here, we thought it would be a good purchase, plus it would be another of those things that I put away in the multiple items closet to bring out when bedrooms and chores are nicely done.
With there being very little toys here, the blocks have become many different things. AnnaBeth and Noelle picked up about 4 or 5 of them and made a “family”. James has used them as weapons. They’ve been bowling pins with a small beach ball or rubber dog ball (actually, here it’s a cat ball, Charlie’s) as the bowling ball. I know there’s been other uses as well as their original use, but I can’t remember them. I just find it so interesting how the kids adapt to this situation so well.
