Tuesday - the weather was warmer and nicer. I started reading Robin Hood to them over breakfast then they went outside to play. They played in the yard, in the cul-de-sac, in the sprinklers, and in the open space behind the house in a ravine and in a stream.
Wednesday - the weather was warmer and nicer, again. I took off 4 hours from my busiest day of the week to meet our friends at the park. It was wonderful to have all the kids together and outside again. It was a huge improvement over my typical Wednesday.
Thursday - I took the girls in for checkups. Apparently, they are both healthy, happy and well-adjusted. After lunch they both spent the afternoon with friends then went to Judo which happily wasn't on spring break.
Friday - the weather was perfectly warm, sunny and clear. We did a quick clean up Friday morning to reduce the amount of housework we had to do on the weekend. After that the girls played and played.
During the break week, I taught the girls to play Hearts and Rummy so we now have two new card games that we can all play. We had a wonderful week and enjoyed our time together. Do I really have to do school next week?

Sounds like you had a great break. Those are so nice :).
We were just thinking of reading Robin Hood (thanks to Knight's Garden by E. Eager) I haven't quite decided between the Howard Pyle version or the Roger Lancelyn Green version.
Looks like a good week of spring break!
My 6yo loves Robin Hood so much that it has to be periodically hidden away where she can't find it lol
