Judy Moody Summer Challenge

A few of my Girl Scout friends created these summer challenges based off Judy Moody and the Not Bummer Summer. Of course I had to play along - it is reading and it is definitely social!

Ready, Set, SPIT!

What better way to kick this off than a Judy Moody party! We had a watermelon seed spitting contest, ate pizza, ate jellybeans (of course), and watched Judy Moody and the Not Bummer Summer. Each girl got a copy of the book to take home. They also made Dare charts to log their points this summer.

Who can hit mom with their seeds?

Anyone is welcome to play along this summer - join us on Facebook to receive the challenges first. I will try to get better at posting them here.

Book Club Brunch

There's this book club..... It really was part of the inspiration for this blog. We don't always do amazing activities. Some days it's just a bunch of kids and parents hanging out.

The girls are in the process of reading Three Times Lucky by Shiela Turnage. Our usual hangout closed it's doors so we have had to get creative on where to meet. One of the girls hosted a brunch for the other girls. It was so much fun! They loved trying out all the wonderful Pinterest recipes, talking about the book, and then playing Harry Potter through out the house. They even let the little brother play. Can't wait to see what the girls do next. They still haven't finished the book, but I think it's because they are having too much fun!
