Oh, The Fun You Can Have With Dried Peas!

It has been raining for the past three days so after several days of being inside Grace and I got a little creative today. Once of Grace's favorite things to do is to pour. She is frequently on her Learning Tower at our sink pouring water. I thought it would be fun for Grace to pour something other than water so we raided our pantry and found some dried peas. It's amazing what joy a few peas, cups, bowls, and a small pitcher brought to Grace. She spent over an hour on our kitchen floor playing with them. It was a fun way for us to spend a rainy Friday morning inside.

Grace was just as excited about cleaning up the dried peas from the floor when she was finished as she was playing with them. Grace loved the little broom and dust pan. She kept saying, "sweep, sweep" even long after the peas were cleaned up!
