Juggle Bubbles.

I like them because they have to be so careful to not pop them.

It is a great way to teach gentle.

OSU Botanical Gardens ~Stillwater, OK

Last month we took the kids to the OSU Botanical Gardens.

I had been a couple of times with the boys in the like spring and summer but the girls had never been so we checked it out.

It was nice to walk around there even without the flowers blooming.
