Check out RightStart while you're researching. It's scripted and has a great emphasis on number sense and mental math. My son likely has ADHD as well and he loves the games and hands-on nature of it. It's our main math curriculum, and BA is fun side program, but my son is 7 so I'm not pushing BA hard.

Annual well check is free Other visits $35 (up from $20 two years ago)

I'll echo "just keep playing." One popular game with my son was spread out the word cards in a 3x3 grid and play tic-tac-toe with coins or counters. We also made a larger grid for "Connect Four." I always made sure to include the words that needed more practice.

"Learn to Read at the Storybook Factory" is a full video devoted to blending. A few Leapfrog titles are missing from Netflix; this may be one of them.

Disclaimer: My oldest is 7, so my thoughts here are based off of my parents' dealings with my 20-year-old sister, the advice of friends who've dealt with this, and the dynamics I've witnessed with classmates/parents and friends/adult offspring. She's reaping the benefits of childhood (laundry, prepared meals, free room) without the restrictions of a child (curfew, enforced chores, removal of privileges like phone, car, outings for misbehavior). She's reaping the benefits of adulthood (independence, job with money to spend, choices for how to use her time) without the responsibilities of adulthood (pay for everything or do it yourself, natural consequences when you misuse other adults). It sounds like she needs a push into adulthood. If she's trying to blackmail you by withholding future visits, I think it's unlikely she's going to grow up while living in your home. I don't think it's doing her any favors to keep letting her live as a child/adult "good parts" hybrid.

We are 0/4 on effectiveness. All of us were vaccinated, all of us got (Dr. confirmed) influenza with symptoms starting the day after Christmas. No way to know if the vaccine made the symptoms less severe, however.

What's a pirate's favorite letter? (At this point most people will think they're clever and say "arrrrrr.") You may think it's "R" but a pirate's first love is the "C."

In those conditions I check/remind anyone riding in my car, including adults. I have reminded my parents before. No one has to wear them to and from the car, but the coats/hats/gloves/emergency blankets come with us. DH grew up in Alaska, and he doesn't mess around with hypothermia. The school bus company policy was to not let a child on the bus unless they had weather-appropriate gear. If you end up in a ditch or stranded with a disabled car, mild discomfort can turn dangerous quickly. We don't trust our trips to always go as planned, so we prepare for it. I'm not the chase-with-a-coat type in most situations. Generally I think kids above toddler age can tell when they need a coat. When I was pregnant with my first and temporary guardian to a 16-year-old for the summer, I got a "you'll understand when you have kids" pat on the head from (what I considered) a hovering always-cold-herself mom. We were camping and it was 58-60℉ during the day. The preteen/teen boys spent all day chasing one another around the woods right by our campsite, sweat dripping from their foreheads and likely their stinky boy pits ;). And she spent all day trying to force her 12, 14, and 16-year-old boys to don coats. They basically ignored her. She was horrified that I didn't make the 16-year-old with me put on long pants. I assured her he had the brains to put them on when needed. She was condescending and said I'd understand later. I assured her I would trust my future (typically developing) 5-6 year old in this situation. She scoffed. I smirked. The dads who were amusedly listening in told me they where on my side. My kid is 7 and I was right ;). But that was 60℉, not 10. And they had access to coats if needed.

I generally use several to mean 3-4.

My favorite is croissants, cheese, ham, and grapes. DH's is biscuits and gravy. We'll have my parents this year too, and I'm thinking I'll go all-out with those plus quiche.

Mine are young (7 & 3) so number is more important than value, though only the 7-year-old might notice. I spent a lot more on DS7 because he's into things like Snap Circuits and Lego, and I think I actually have more individual items for him too. DD3 will be thrilled with her much cheaper ponies, small Duplo sets, and mini princess dolls and nothing else will matter :).

Another vote for Quirkle or Quirkle Cubes.

Pampered Chef pastry blender. I was given one as a wedding present, but had never used one so it went unnoticed in a drawer for years. Then when I made my first pie crust I remembered I had it and pulled it out. It's been so handy for recipes that require cutting butter or shortening, like biscuits, crumbles, and pie crust.

My family loves and embraces both, but I know some kids aren't really into the create-your-own side and enjoy themed kits more. If they haven't played with basic loose bricks before, they probably don't know what awesome potential they have! Since they're getting sets too, personally, I'd give them the basic bricks as well to expand their play.

I bought DS7 a turtle shell for Christmas. He wanted an assortment of pelts, including chinchilla, but those were out of my price range.

Amazon has everything ;).

They're not cheap, but Smart Games makes a lot of single player logic games that are great. We really like Colour Code: https://www.amazon.com/SmartGames-SG-090-Color-Code/dp/B004TGVIWU Do you have a Lakeshore Learning store? It's a great place to browse for ideas. What about a small box of Lego bricks with instructions? There are lots of free instructions online and you could print them out.

My husband loves lentils with a ham bone and whatever scraps of ham we have on hand. I usually cook it in a crock pot with onion, shredded carrot, diced celery, water, beef or chicken bullion, and a dash of liquid smoke flavoring. It's very filling and comforting on a cold day. We usually have French bread with it.

Hummus can be made with peanut butter instead of tahini. This would assume a little peanut butter, lemon juice, oil, salt, and a spice or two on hand, so not straight up $2, but a possibility. It could be served with pretzels, baby carrots, and/or celery.

What about a more exotic fruit like pomegranate or guava? I just picked up a 1 lb. pack little guava fruit for my kids to try for $2.25 at Walmart Neighborhood Market. (Oh, I see you need to shop in one trip, but you'll likely be grocery shopping again close to Christmas I presume...)

My Target has large, full-sized ones for $10 on an end-cap between toys and sporting goods with themes like Harry Potter, Star Wars, etc. I've seen smaller plain ones at craft stores. Party City has smaller character ones. Amazon has options too.
