Grandma's Camp Read-A-Lot


My kids are very very fortunate to have wonderful involved Grandparents on both sides.  Unfortunately Ryan's parents live in KS, but my parents live here so we are able to see them quite often.  My mom was a teacher before we were born and LOVES to read, so she came up with a really cute idea for the kids this summer. 

My parents have a pool and we swim there a lot in the summer, but after we put sunscreen on the kids they always have to sit and wait for the sunscreen to soak in for awhile.  My mom now is going to do "Grandma's Camp Read-A-Lot while they wait!

She reads them books and then they do a fun craft/educational activity about the book.



They also received circles to write down each book title they read on it.  As they read a certain amount of books they get prizes, so they of course love that! 

Here's Jackson's

And Cooper's so far.


Each kid got a shirt to wear during the camp.  Adorable!

Jackson was nice enough to pose for me.

This is a really horrible picture but it's showing a really fun new thing my mom got my dad for Father's Day.  It's a projector you can attach to your ipad!  They're planning on watching movies while we swim and doing fun movie nights outside.  Woo hoo!
