Welcome to our Halloween Themed October Sibshop.
We tested our memory with this spooky memory tray. Our Sibshoppers had 2 minutes to look at the tray and memorize the items. Then they had 2 minutes to write down everything they could remember while the tray was out of sight. Overall, they did really well remembering!
We tried our hand at some flying tea bag ghosts and found we didn't quite get the results we were hoping for. While they did move around a bit, we couldn't get the ghosts to truly take flight as the breeze in the air toppled them before takeoff.
They did have some great faces though!
Life size Tic-Tac-Toe got the blood pumping. You work as a team to get 3 in a row before your opponent. It's surprising how difficult this simple game can become when you add the athletic element!
For lunch we all made our own english muffin pizza mummies. Delicious!
Escaping the laser maze without touching the lasers isn't quite as easy as our Sibshoppers tend to think. Good thing they aren't true lasers!
Take a look at our fun foil transfer Halloween pics! The kids were so creative and the colors turned out awesome.
We also spent some time talking about our fears. We talked about sharks, spiders, failure, not fitting in, making friends, going to a new school and so much more. We talked about the things that scare our sibs as well. One sibling couldn't live without their tablet--losing it would be the scariest thing of all. Our Sibshoppers shared ways that they can help their siblings cope with feelings of fear. Giving hugs, protecting them, being friendly, and preventing stress were some ways they and their siblings could cope with fears of all sorts.
