Preschooler in Motion!

Motion Sickness is apparently inherited!  Braelyn's theme this week is motion, and her song is "The wheels on the Bus".  I thought since the Clemson Area Transit (CAT) bus was a free ride that it would be a great adventure for a Monday morning.

Apparently sitting on the inward facing seats causes both Mommy and Braelyn to become queasy!  We did enjoy the ride.  Our trip started at the fountain at SWU, then we rode the red route to Hendricks center for a nice brunch, a visit to the Barnes and Noble book store and a yummy ice cream.

On the return trip we decided that the forward facing seats were much better for little tummies.
 (PLEASE notice Braelyn and Natalie--her doll have matching mommy-made skirts for the trip!!)
We sang her song, counted all the things that had wheels and learned that the bus can also carry a bicycle from one stop to another.  She collected a pine cone while waiting in the shade for the bus to arrive.

We finished up our homeschooling day with a little m&m math and graphing activity!

  1. So exciting!!! I wish I had started homeschooling when they were that age...glad the tummies didn't get so uneasy that you couldn't enjoy the day :)
