Day 2, A Day Of Fishing. Lets start out with that wonderful, fun book by the famous Dr. Seuss, One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish. Then it's on to a snack of Swedish fish and fish crackers, along with some blue ocean Hawaiian punch for water and its outside for a fun time. Kids love to fish and even if you don't have a fishing license you can fish it our way. Great for letting kids figure out how to catch those fish using a magnet on the end. Great for small motor skills and very tricky. You can give out small prizes for the fish they catch. Then its time to make a under the water fish picture. Simple way of using water on paper first and then touching the water with different water colors and they run into a master piece. Then add some leaves from outside and some sand with glue after the paint dries and add some color fish and you have the perfect masterpiece.
It's a proven fact that children who are read to everyday, yes parents everyday are able to retain more information and memorize. I spent 1 week reading everyday to my grandson, and he now has 5 books memorized with emotion in his reading. Not to brag by any means. But we started the Nursery Rhymes, which I am not sure why everyone stopped having the children memorize them. But he knows them, we put them all to singing. Super way for ALL children to learn.
There is nothing better then giving praise for a job well done, I mean after all don't we all like to get a pat on the back when we come home with a load of fresh fish after along day!!!!!!!
Oh and don't forget to pack along some of those Grandma Cookies!!!!!
