What a terrific group we had at the after-school club today. We read one of my favorite authors, Patricia Polacco. It was a perfect story for today as the wind was blowing and the rain falling while we read about making Thunder Cake (recipe is available online). We also giggled our way through a sweet story about a chicken who laid unusual eggs. Instead of plain white or speckled brown, her eggs looked exactly like what she was seeing when she laid them---sky blue with clouds, Mona Lisa's lips, flowers, ballet dancers! The kids really thought they were awesome. Our last story was about a naughty bunny obsessed with soccer.
We finished the program with the first part of the movie PETER COTTONTAIL. There is nothing to compare with the old Bass and Rankin movies!
Although I had originally scheduled only two programs in April, I found that I have enough stories and activities (and interest) to add a third date, April 18th. I will post a note at the library and talk to everyone next Monday, but I hope you all will be able attend!
