We had a wonderful experience at the Visser Farms Strawberry Patch yesterday evening. Strawberry picking was the perfect activity for an active toddler.  Finley loved being outdoors, and he was eager to help carry the basket.  He caught on very quickly, and it was a fun way to learn about colors in a setting where finding the reddest strawberries mattered.  Here’s their website if you’d like to see for yourself: https://www.visser-farms.com/u-pick-strawberries

Tuesday evening pickleball was canceled due to rain, but Finley and I still managed to have some fun before it got too wet.  Aunt Judy sent me a recipe for Bouncing Bubbles, which are a bit thicker than the type you would buy at a supermarket.  The best part is that they don’t pop as easily and they were a hit.  Finley had fun popping his bubbles, and I poured our concoction into his lawn mower to have even more fun.  

Bouncing Bubbles:

1 part dish soap

2 parts sugar

4 parts water.
