Tuesday's Happenings...

Published on Jun 2, 2010

Guess who got their very own library card???

Walker's been waiting and waiting to turn 6 and get his very own library card. First book he checked out Trains, a book in his reading level.

We also signed up for the summer reading program at both libraries. I also make a little reading challenge for the kiddos. Walker's summer goal... read 75 books. Ainsley's goal was a bit harder to calculate... she reads longer chapter books and 75 chapter books would take her a really long time. So I went with points they are worth for the testing they do at school. The chapter book she just read was worth 5 points so her goals is also 75 but in points not books. They both get to pick out a big prize at the end of the summer. Walker's prize a really big lego set... the police or fire station. Ainsley's still deciding on hers... she's thinking a couple signature Webkinz.

Yesterday also started lunch at the park. We came prepared for some rain sprinkling but as we were standing in line the skies opened and it started to pour... everything was soaked. Just imagine trying to put food items in wet paper bags. Glad we had a nice dry car to run to so that they could enjoy it.
