Wordless Wednesday-Puppet School Spelling Bee
MJ’s puppet school had a spelling bee. We used a fun spelling game called Leap Frog My First Spelling Bee Game Tin
Puppets are a great way to do school and she doesn’t even realize it. Mommy is so sneaky.
Library Summer Reading Program’s Blast Off! Craft
Today we went to the Morgan County Public Library’s summer reading Blast Off! Craft Program. JEM and MJ had a blast making this craft. They made a rocket ship snow globe. MJ had fun with lots of stickers and glitter glue.
The library has such great activities. Check out the post “Summer Reading Program @ the Library- “Chalk the Walk Wednesday” for more information on all the great things to do at the library during the summer or check back to see the fun we had.
What cool things have you found to do so far this summer?
Summer Reading Program @ the Library- “Chalk the Walk Wednesdays”
(There were more kids participating, but I waited to take pics so I wouldn’t have other children in the pictures. She looks lonely, but she was so into her art she didn’t want to leave.)
Today we went to the first “Chalk the Walk Wednesdays” activity for the Morgan County Public Library’s Summer Reading Program that’s every Wednesday from 2-2:30.
The Reporter Times newspaper was there taking pictures and MJ will be in the paper again. She seems to always be in the paper for the library events.
So funny. I think it’s because we are at most of them and we always stay the longest. Usually until they kick us out.
The Morgan County Public Library here in Martinsville offers a summer reading program every year to promote reading for children, teens, and adults.
