My kids are in the phase where they want to watch the same thing over and over and their movie of choice right now is The Grinch.  My daughter was not thrilled that today&#8217;s activity is suggesting she expand her movie horizons.  We will see if I can convince her to give it a try tonight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> In keeping with the Christmas train theme, the Pixy showed up riding a new train this morning. We already had a small collection of Christmas theme Little People that we got from the Little People Advent Calendar a few years ago (it&#8217;s a fantastic advent for young kids).  We continue to bring the toys out every year at Christmas so I thought the train addition would be fun.  My 3 year old son was more enamoured with it than my 5 year old daughter, but I think that&#8217;s okay.  Some advent days are more exciting for my daughter than my son.  It all evens out in the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_9152-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-201\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_9152-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_9152-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_9152-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_9152-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_9152-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_9148-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-203\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_9148-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_9148-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_9148-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_9148-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/ahouseofplay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_9148-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Day 6 will be to watch The Polar Express tonight.
