[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 31750, member: 3388"] Linda, It sounds like you have a full night planned!!! If she still needs more things to do to keep her busy, what about crafts? My easy child used to love using beads to make all kinds of jewlry. Also, sometimes in bad weather, we would put together a photo album. We always have tons of pictures that need to be organized!!! Even though it is sometimes a dreaded chore, it brings back lots of happy memories and we end up having a great time! I think I remember you mentioning that kt likes to sew. My local craft store has kts for kids to make stuffed bears. My easy child used to love doing this! Another thought just popped into my mind having to do with family pictures. How about making a collage of favorite photos around a similar theme and putting it in a frame? I did a fun one awhile back for husband's office. He loves anything having to do with boats, pools or the ocean. I had pictures of the kids as toddlers sitting in pretend boats at an amusement park, etc..., all the way to a few years ago when we were on a family vacation and someone we met took a picture of all of us in the pool for our Christmas card picture. Maybe, if tomorrows weather is bad, you and kt could prepare something special together for dinner... My kids loved the Harry Potter books!!! This might keep her entertained for awhile. They are so long... If I think of anything else, I'll let you know. Got to go - I can hear difficult child 2 verbalizing already and I need him to get ready to pick up easy child from her after school activities soon. I hope things go better than you expect.
