19 December 2010

Another reason Sophie is our favorite babysitter: creative play. Becky came home Saturday to find 4 giggly kids playing Star Wars with light sabers made out of legos. They took turns being Yoda, Obi-Wan, Annikin and Darth Maul. Some of their giggling came from pretending to be Darth Christmas.

As fun as the lego light sabers were, the kids found out pretty quickly that you can't actually duel with one. Conveniently, they found some empty wrapping paper tubes to color and play with.

Brandan took the kids home teaching with him tonight. He visits some wonderful people. Brandan and the kids came home with twice the goodies they left with, including these flashing reindeer antlers. In the photo Helen is also showing off her double light saber.

Ah, Christmas vacation.

Sounds like I need to hire Sophie as a babysitter. I love the sitters that will play with the kids.
