Snakes in Boxes

Does anyone else feel like they are drowning in rain? We shouldn't have to deal with cabin fever in June! Ugh! In order to stave off the crazies, the kids decided to make a pet store the other day. They were the pets, three king cobras, and I was the buyer. Grant was "Little Snake", Grace was "Twinkle Eyes", and Merritt was "Mr. Fangs".


They came in boxes with lids...










and were wild snakes, but when I played music for them they danced and became my friends. I had some "people" come over to see my snakes and Mr. Fangs bit them, but I had anti-venom on hand, so all was well.

That's awesome! And yes, we are drowning. My kids think it is winter and were trying to "sled" down the stais in the laundry basket the other day. Ahh!

That anti-venom stuff sure does come in handy! Cabin fever is no fun, but luckily your kids have great imaginations!

That looks like so much fun! What a fun rainy day idea. I hope you have gotten some sun shine though.
