It costs over $50 for my family to visit our local zoo. And that's if it's just me and the kiddos. If we go on the weekend when my husband has off, that's another $15 for him to get in!Jennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1378562155896437704.post-32413790036520110522013-05-28T14:01:06.403-04:002013-05-28T14:01:06.403-04:00I'd love to hear what you think about Around t...I'd love to hear what you think about Around the World in 60 Days.

A small pompom is also the perfect size so I just keep one in the pencil box. <br />Jonathan does get frustrated doing this though since he feels more control holding his pencil incorrectly right now. I've been trying timed practice with sticker rewards. For example, we'll color at the table and for every few minutes he colors holding the color pencil correctly, he gets one sticker on his paper. So far he likes this, but I still see him holding the pencil incorrectly when I'm not watching :( At least he's getting some practice in.Tim, Allyson, and kidshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02783456001791140306noreply@blogger.com
