Grand ole Opry

This has been a bucket list adventure since I was a little girl watching Hee Haw ⭐️We had the opportunity to go visit @opry and do a backstage tour.
.

Upon arriving,you are ushered into this beautiful room that is rich with history all over the walls.To see some of Country Musics Performers ,past and present is amazing.

You are then greeted by a virtual Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood as they walk you through the Opry’s history and how it all started.Seeing the past performances is priceless✨

It was also pretty cool to learn how they brought the wood circle from the Ryman with them when they moved.For performers, it is the highlight if their career to step onto the circle ✨The Opry has a limited amount of performers that get asked to become a member of the Opry . It is a lifetime achievement moment for those that are asked.

.
It was so amazing to see the look at the @opry through the years. It totally took me back to watching the show sitting with my Grandma & Grandpa and the sweet memories⭐️
.

If you are visiting @nashvilletn then you need to put this on your list⭐️
.

a few tips .. DO NOT BUY ONLINE we figured this out the hard way . We bought tickets online and the service fee was slot more then if you just buy on property. The only time it would benefit you to buy online is if you are on a strict timeframe and need to plan your visit .

Play-Doh Fall Fun Center


Play-doh is so much fun for my little to play with and easily provides an hour or so quiet time for me when .. win for both of us!
.
So I decided to take it up a notch and add some play-doh ( I also found sparkle play-doh ✨ ) and some fun things to mix in and create with like eyeballs, pipe cleaners, buttons, spiders, bats and jewels


.
It turned out so cute! My daughter had a friend over and they played with the kits making all kinds of creations. Ofcourse ,the sparkly jewels and glitter play-doh was their favorites ❤️And I caught the older kids stopping by to watch them and I think secretly wanting to play with it themselves 😁


Here are some of the resources to create your own ..The box to store it is different then the one we used but looks like it would still work and maybe even for travel.When you click on our links below,we receive a portion of your sale..thank you for supporting our blog💛

Frankenstein Math

We made these adorable Frankensteins for our Fall party this past week 🍁
.
How cute are these???
.
The littles each had their own dice to roll and as they rolled their number it determined what to glue onto their Frankenstein



.
This was the perfect game for the party .It was so fun to see how they all made their Frankensteins their own by putting the hair up to be spiked or the scar on the cheek .. they had fun being creative and they were all unique

.
I found this cute idea from
@housingaforest ❤️She has lots of other fun ideas on her website including this one

Leaf Graphing

Leaf Graphing 🍁
.
We had so much fun doing this! The littles were able to get outside and search for leaves 🍃 The colors this time of year are so beautiful! They found leaves of all shapes and sizes which added to the fun


.
We then went in and dried them off and then sorted them.



.
It was a fun way to enjoy the season as we did math 🍁
