Week 7: Garden & Mother's Day
Mix and match activities that you like - repeat favorites, skip the ones you don't like, above all - HAVE FUN LEARNING!
​
All activities are designed using items you may have on hand - feel free to improvise! After an activity, save the supplies - you'll find they can usually be reused with another activity!
​
**Helpful hints:
If you do not have access to a printer, most pages are easily reproduced by hand.
