Tonight was Wellness Night over at the elementary school. We really enjoyed Wellness Night last year when we were introduced to Lucy Apples! The kids were excited to see if they had lucy apples again. They didn't, but they did have new delicious and healthy treats for us to sample! There was a sheet full of rambutan, also known as "hairy fruit".
Peter, what do you think of rambutan?
He was not a fan. The kids didn't care for the Jicama either, but I liked those. They also had moon drop grapes! Katharine, what do you think of those?
They looked strange but tasted great and K ate them up. The kids got to vote for the foods they liked or didn't like and give them 1-5 stars. K gave the grapes 10 stars! So those were some new foods for our physical wellness. They also had mazes to test how sharp our brains were.
Sleep wellness - we made Katharine a sleep mask again, this one was red to match her dress again.
Then she wanted purple and blue on it! But ahhh! That doesn't match your dress sweetie!
The ocd in me didn't want to allow that, but I gave in and tried to keep it subtle.
Peter beat me in a few games of Spot it.
The kids have a list of "wellness" things that they need to do this week, and if they do 10 of them, they can turn their paper back in for a prize drawing. We got three checked off tonight: attend wellness night - check. Go on a family walk (we walked over to the school) check. And play a game together (we did some sudoku after we got home).
Natalie is feeling better, but still looks ill.
