Strawberry Mice

How do you spell relationship? I have learned that the real way to spell it is TIME!

Whether you are talking about your children, your grandchildren, your spouse or your friends. It is spelled the same way!

Sometimes I am tempted to want to get something else done and just let the kids play by themselves when I had planned to play with them. Or to be having lunch with someone and be checking my email or talking on the phone with someone else. I try to remember to be attentive to the people I am with and enjoy building that relationship.

Below is a fun activity to do with your children or grandchildren. My friend Bekah and I tested this activity recently with 4 children (5 and under). I thought they would make a strawberry mouse and  want to get down and do something else. To our surprise they wanted to keep making the strawberry mice and loved Bekah and I being a part of the activity alongside them.

This was a great activity to do together and was a healthy snack!
