Evan's Spring Break

Evan has been off of school this week for spring break. Since the public schools were out last week, that is when the gym he usually attends had day camp. Thus, he has been stuck at home all week. It has not been a problem as he is very good at keeping busy.

Todd plays a game on Facebook called Farmville. It involves setting up a farm, planting different crops and then harvesting the crops for coins. Todd logged Evan into his account a couple of days ago and Evan has been very diligent in keeping the farm growing, montoring when it is time to harvest and generally keeping everything going. Impressive farming, Evan!

Evan had taken over Todd's Farmville game.

In addition to virtual farming, Evan has been having a lot of fun hoeing in all of the dirt that we have outside. He was so excited about wanting to plant something that Todd agreed to get some plants and help Evan do a "patio garden." Todd came home with a few things and he and Evan transplanted them into some larger plastic container. I think these will take longer to grow than the virtual ones.

Today, Evan got a little bored and decided to dig into some of the materials that we have to use in science experiments. He found some food coloring and thought that it would be a great idea to have a green hand. The results are below:

Evan thinks that having a green hand is very cool!

I helped him wash again and this is the best we could get it. I guess it will just have to wear off!
