Every day the first thing Livia does when we get home from school is head straight to the snack cupboard. I swear that child is a bottomless pit. With the way she eats, a quick go-to afternoon snack is a must. And what better time is there to throw in a fun family activity than over a high quality snack? This Pudding Cup Anemometer is a fun way to recycle your snack packaging, get your kids creating, building, and learning about the weather!
What is an Anemometer?
An anemometer is a device that is used to measure wind speed, and is a common weather station instrument. The term is derived from the Greek word anemos, which means wind.
Every day we head to the park, even if it is only for 10 minutes. It’s a simple ritual that I greatly enjoy. A brief time of silence as the kids run around and have fun. The other day while we were at the park Meatball noticed a couple grey clouds. Not being able to verbalize what he was seeing, he acted it out until I understood. Following his curiosity we decided on painting shaving cream clouds once we got home.
This activity turned out to be so much more fun than I expected. In the past we have had a ton of fun playing with shaving cream but, quite honestly I expected this activity to not hold his attention for that long being outside and all. If given the choice Meatball is not one to pick sedentary activities outdoors…but leave it to him, this one definitely was not what I expected it to be.
