So despite provincial restrictions preventing us from inviting over Margot's friends over for a get-together, we put our minds together and came up with...
First ever mountain bike experience! Getting into the Spirit of Place! |
- First mountain bike experience in newly opened Morris Island conservation area;
- A few random (but socially distant) visits from friends outside our house;
- Margot got to pick dinner. She came up with Green Papaya, a yummy local Thai restaurant;
- A Zoom/Netflix party where Margot and 5 friends got to play Carmen Sandiego: To Steal or Not to Steal, a choose-your-own-adventure style Netflix movie. (Margot shouted out instructins explaining what to do); and perhaps most fun of all...
- Margot's 10th Birthday clue book! Eight clues leading to eight gifts hidden throughout our house.*
There was no order to the clues nor did she have to solve them all at once. But as the day progressed those clues were pretty tempting and by 3 pm she had solved them all and found her gifts.
The "Call Grandma V" clue! |
* The clues were: (1) Let's go Biking; (2) Call Uncle J for clue; (3) Pick your favourite game; (4) Call Grandma V; (5) Stuffies have a new friend; (6) A good place to spy; (7) Hit the slopes; (8) Giddy up Horse. Note the clues led to the location of the gifts and sometimes also hinted at the gifts themselves.
