Again, please notice the children sitting politely eating their sundaes, smiling for the camera....(also notice Mark in the background "chowing down" on his own creation):)
NOW, please notice the picture below of what I like to call, "Red Rover Gone Terribly Wrong!". That's right - this picture is from the part of the party that MARK was in charge of!!! Looks like fun, right?!
Let me just say, in case you are wondering, yes, this child survived, and yes, Mark's team won. (That IS what it's all about, isn't it??!!) All joking aside, we had a great time, and I really did appreciate Mark's help (can't say for sure that Wade did, though!)
Next, the girls (it was offered to the boys, too, but they had better things to do) created paper bag puppets out of paper bags, scrapbooking paper, and markers. I thought their puppets turned out really cute, and they had a great time making them...
After the creations were done, it was time for some more artistic projects. We worked together to make the backdrop for our puppet program. The kids had fun painting that....
What is a party without food??!! For our snack, the kids were given various "finger foods" to use to make their own "puppet". I thought it was neat how each one turned out so different. Here are our "puppet people"...
Before the kids left, each one was given their own "Paper Bag Scrapbook" with pictures in it of our past practices, etc... I thought they turned out pretty good for my first attempt. The kids really liked them, too.
We had a great day and the kids all got along great. They are doing an awesome job on their puppet script, too. Way to go, guys!!!
