A few week ago our theme for the week was airplanes so we read lots of books about airplanes, "flew" around the room to "airplane music," and on Friday the boys painted airplanes. Wal-mart has little wooden planes/cars/trucks in their craft aisle. They worked great for this and my 22-month-old loved the project too.
On Thursday we went to the local municipal airport to watch planes land and take-off. My boys loved it. My husband has taken them before and every time they have a ball. Another reason it's great to live in a smaller town.

I'm sure your and my perspective on 'a small town' are soooo much different (isn't everything ten times bigger in the states? *lol*) But you're totally right about it!
I grew up in a larger city and 4 years ago we moved to this tiny town. Firstly, it was out of need (we had to wait forever to get a house in the city) but it was sooooo good that we now never want to go back. And I've lived in that city for over 20 years.
A small town is so nice.. it's so nice to be able to recognize people and have your local green grocer talk to you personally....
Greetings from a SMALL town in the netherlands! ;)
