One of the things that I really wanted to start doing this year is make sure that we do fun activities to celebrate holidays together as a family. For the Fourth of July, Charlotte created really cool
sand art. The set-up was really easy and it was a lot of fun! I got two salt and pepper shakers at the grocery store and placed masking tape over most of the holes. Then I filled them with two different colors of sand! We used spray adhesive as a way to keep the sand on the paper. After Charlotte created her artwork, I cut some of the paper and mounted it onto a piece of construction paper.

She loved the texture of the sand |

cute! |
Another activity that we did together was create
watermelon star pops. First, I cut up a watermelon into large enough slices to fit the star-shaped cookie cutter. Then, I gave Charlotte the slices one by one and let her cut out the stars! After that, I put popsicle sticks at one end of each star and put them into the freezer. They tasted good, but Charlotte prefers regular watermelon. :)
