How in the world do I go from the warm weather to the cooler weather while keeping my daughter entertained? I think this is a question that many parents struggle with. What do you do to control the excitement of Halloween, then Thanksgiving, and then Christmas?
Halloween is the start of all the holidays and many kids start getting really restless and want to be entertained. They always want to be doing something. My sweet Hannelore is right there with all the other kids.
So I decided to pull out what we have done in past years and also inspiration on the internet for things that we want to do this year. I hope these ideas can help me to make memories with my daughter and help her get some energy out at the same time. I also hope that you as the reader can join in on the fun as well.
