Grandparents Story Time: May 27, 2014

Books:
Grandpa Green by Lane Smith *
Just Grandma and Me by Mercer Mayer *
My Grandpa by Marta Altes
Raisin and Grape by Tom Amico
Two at the Zoo: A Counting Book by Danna Smith *
What's the Matter, Bunny Blue? by Nicola Smee
Whopper Cake by Karma Wilson

Craft: Family Tree
Children were given a coloring sheet with a tree trunk and branches.  They then got a green circle for each family member.  They could draw or write their family's members names on the circles before gluing them to the tree.

Literacy Extensions:
- Discuss with your child and their grandparent(s) how life was different when the grandparent(s) was a child.
- Discuss what your child should do if they ever get separated from their adult (i.e. What's the Matter, Bunny Blue)
