Barnsongen

There is a church across the street from our apartment.
Here's the view from our apartment.  See it? 
Every Tuesday morning they host what they call a "barnsongen" (children's song).  We go over and they have a giant playroom with a play kitchen, a reading nook, tons of animals, legos galore, cars, trains, and anything else you can imagine.  Kids just go crazy and make messes but its so fun! Its so fun for us to get out and let Owen play with new toys and new kids and make a mess without me having to clean it.

We play for a little bit and then all the kids gather in the room next door and sit in a circle and we sing swedish songs.  I'm learning them.  slowly but surely.  I have no idea the words they're actually saying I will just sometimes mumble sounds.  Yea, I know.  I'm pretty awesome.  Owen's favorite song is about a grasshopper because everyone throws their kids up in the air during the song and he thinks its hilarious. 

After singing time we eat lunch together (kids eat free) and then we play some more! Owen loves it and he especially loves going with his friend Emelina. Which is great because then I have a friend too.
Just playing the drums with some utensils. Or just eating them.
Playing with Emelina.
Singing time. 
They were kissing through the plastic window but this random little boy ruined the picture.
