What about Me?

After coming home from the Expo yesterday and going through all our stuff, I quickly realized there were things for Lain that I had wanted to purchase but was too distracted and never did. Sooooo, after repeating several times yesterday that I would/could NEVER bring my children there, I loaded them up and brought them for round 2. I had not planned on going back since Eric had to work and I didn't think it was worth my headache to bring them. I'm glad I braved it because Logan enjoyed all the hands on stuff there was for him to check out and Lain was right there with him. I was even able to attend one of the workshops dealing with how to homeschool with a younger one in the house for 45 mins with very little distraction from them. Sometimes they really do come through.

My main focus on the second trip was for things for Lain and I opted for My Father's World Preschool/Toddler items:

Toddler Tote
Number Puzzleboard and Pegs
Lace and Link lowercase letters
Lacing Shapes
Fit A Space
Peg Board

I am really excited about using these with Lain. He played with them for a long time while I talked to some of the volunteer's that were at the booth. I am hopeful that I can spend 5-10 mins playing with him guiding him in what I would like him to do so I can spend the remaining part of the hour on a subject with Logan. As a side note, Logan also spent a good deal of time playing with the pegs and stacking them as high as he could before they toppled over. I think they will be a big hit.
