It’s day three of BCB Spirit Week: WACKY WEDNESDAY!  Cabin fever might be making us all a little wacky, so let’s show off our craziness and celebrate it the best we can!  We want to see YOUR wacky spirit, take some time and let the kids dress up, get creative and crazy.  (For all we know, that could take an hour of time!  You’re welcome!). Once you’re done, post a picture and check out the awesome activities we rounded up for you and your kiddos today!  

 Make sure to share your spirit on Instagram!  Tag @bumpclubandbeyond #BCBSpiritWeek  for the chance to be featured AND to win awesome prizes.  Spread the word and let your friends know!

SURPRISE YOUR KIDDOS WHEN THEY GET UP IN THE MORNING AND THROUGHOUT THE DAY WITH SOME FUN IDEAS:

• Turn the furniture upside down
• Put hats on the lights
• Turn wall photos upside down
• Put shoes or boots on the couch or chair legs
• Have your kids go through the house to find all of the new wacky ideas!

WEAR YOUR WACKIEST CLOTHES

Dig into the dress-up closet, pull out last year’s Halloween costume or just mix and match some fun colorful clothes!  Add even more colorful flare by spraying your hair your favorite color or trying out a new hairstyle! Oh and don’t forget your wackiest socks!  More ideas include:

• Wear your clothes inside out
• Wear your PJs today
• Wear all your clothes backwards
• Try and wear as many different colors of the rainbow as you can
• Add ribbons to your hair or multiple hats
• Trade clothes with a sibling
• Have your kids try on Mom and Dad’s clothes

GET CREATIVE WITH WACKY HAIR

Spend a little extra time being creative this morning – you have nowhere to go anyway, right!?

What a cute idea to use the hair to form the food on a plate.

Love this cute mermaid & hair tail!

How funny is this man with long moustache!

Boys who are into lego & can have their hair shaped into a surf wave might love this.

What an amazing effort this mum made to get this lizard look!

ONCE YOUR DRESSED AND YOUR HAIR IS DID….TAKE A WALK AROUND THE BLOCK TO SHOW OFF YOUR WACKINESS!

HAVE FUN WITH WACKY ACTIVITIES, ARTS AND CRAFTS

Make arts and crafts extra fun and wacky today with these awesome ideas:

• Have a crazy dance party in the morning or to end the day.
• Print out some old pictures.  Have the kids create frames for them out of construction paper or cardboard that you have around the house. Then have them use markers, paperclips, and other supplies to draw and place wacky accessories and embellishments all over the photos.
• Take a walk and have the kids decorate your friends’ and neighbors driveway. But instead of writing who it’s from have them sign it:  ‘Guess Who?’
• Tape paper underneath the table for “upside down” coloring
• Make fluffy slime chemistry  with instructions from Mom Dot Com.
• Challenge your kids to a Dr. Seuss STEM cup stacking challenge with instructions from Little Bins for Little Hands.
•  This lava lamp experiment is a HUGE hit with kids.
• Try out this leak-proof bag science experiment. It’s like a magic trick, but it’s really science!
• Inflate a balloon with baking soda and vinegar!

READ BOOKS ABOUT WACKINESS

Dr. Seuss is one of the wackiest guys we know so why not make it a fun day to read books all from him today!  Odds are you already have some in your house and if not, many libraries are offering free e-books right now. Here are a few of our favorites:
