Sibling Fun

In my mind I am constantly thinking about fun things to do/play/make/read/sing with the grand kids.

This would be significantly easier to do if they were all the exact age and had the very same interests.

Thankfully, they do not.   But it WOULD be easier.

They usually do not want to do ANYTHING that I think would be amazing.  I do not find this surprising as I remember being the same way.

What they have going for them is that they have siblings who can think up things that would never enter my aged mind.

Those ideas they each seem to adore.

Like, "put your baby brother's leg in an empty almond container that just a few minutes ago was your other brother's drum".

I've never seen this idea in any of the "how to entertain a baby for a very long time" books.

But it worked.  It entertained a baby and his four year old sister for longer than anything else had.

And it took his mind off teething for a bit.

Feintsje has four teeth now.
