I'm not very good at playtime. (This may or may not come as a surprise to *you*. Pst, I'm being just a wee bit sarcastic.) I'm too much of a "do-er" to be good at playtime. This doesn't mean I don't recognize the value in playtime, I'm just not very good at it. But today I was grateful that I allowed myself space for playtime with my nephew. I just decided to let go of myself and play with him and we had a great time! I have made these letter bags for him and I to discover together. Each bag focuses on a letter of the alphabet and the items in the bag, be it pictures or actual items, start with that letter. We opened "F" today and I had put a small flashlight in there for him. So we turned on the flashlight and went exploring in all the dark places of Papa and Gma's house and then we jumped on a bed in the dark with the flashlight. And I was grateful for playtime with my sweet boy.
I should do these for my littles!
