Recently my kids found Dreamworks Dragons: Race to the Edge on Netflix. They just can't get enough of Hiccup and Toothless. When Netflix sent us a package of Dragon goodies, my 11-year-old was crazy-excited, hoping it was the "Dragon Eye" in the box. (In the series, the "Dragon Eye" is powered by a dragon's fiery breath and it shows a map.) Alas, it was not the "Dragon Eye." It was a package of dragon themed goodies!
(If you have little dragon trainers in your home, you can give them a dragon-themed snacks of "dragon scales" Doritos, and "dragon claws" Bugles. Cute!)
My favorite item in this box of goodies was the sidewalk chalk because my kids voluntarily turned off the TV and ran outside to draw their own dragons and maps on the cement, and they played make-believe dragon trainer games all afternoon! Well, they played until the rain came, anyway.

We've loved the How to Train Your Dragon movies! Those snacks are a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI am guilty of the same thing, there has been a lot of Netflix days in our house too. Sometimes I need those days to get things done for me. But I am trying to learn to balance it all better. Been reading Kim Buck's The Thriving Woman's Guide to Setting Boundaries. It's a great read on learning that I don't have to be the "go to" for everything. Her site for the book is areyouwillingtobeseen.com, it has helped me find ways to have less Netflix days!
ReplyDeleteWOW! I'm guilty too. Your kids are absolutely adorable.
