Traveling Story Hour~ Our Big Kindergartener

Well our big boy Isaiah will start kindergarten in six weeks. This momma is super anxious and super sad about it but at the same time I can't wait to see all the adventures school will bring him. I guess its just a thing that will grow with time. I know he will LOVE going.
To sort of prep Isaiah on starting kindergarten I thought it would be nice to go and play on the playground on his soon to be elementary school. After the hubby got home from work we took off down the road to visit the playground and had a little storytime about starting Kindergarten.
 
We were able to read more books this time because we didn't have other friends with us so it was easier to fit more than one in. We read four books about going to school! All I would recommend. They were so cute.
 

  The boys made an apple craft after dinner while we were waiting on daddy to get home from work!


 Isaacs is on the left and Isaiahs on the right.

We brought lots and lots of sidewalk chalk and had a blast drawing all over the huge basketball court on the playground. While the boys drew on the pavement, I read them the books.


My husbands artwork...a break dancer doing a head spin.lol .;)

My sweet Ian so happy and content!
After reading we indulged in a little sweet snack...apple nachos. Yummy! Caramel, chocolate, mini marshmellows, and apples. Thought the "apples" went with the back to school theme.:)
After our storytime the boys played on the jungle gym! They had a blast!


Awe my big boy Isaiah. I cannot believe that he is old enough to start school! Where has the time gone??

Being silly...as usual!

Ian wishing he could run and play with his two older bubbas.

My honey has just as much fun as the little boys. I love him!:)


This little boy has absolutely NO fear of anything. His daddy can talk him into doing anything.



Thanks for reading! Also, if you are reading leave a comment. Do any of you do traveling story hours? I'd love to hear new ideas of different places. :)

Traveling Story Hour- The Ice Cream King



Our second Traveling Story Hour went great. We met some friends at our local ice cream shop and read a really cute story called the Ice Cream King. The kiddos ate ice cream of their choice and then they made ice cream crowns to wear! The boys had a great time!!!

Nana reading the kids the book. If you haven't read this book yet then you should. Its a fun little story.

Poor little Ian had to miss out on ice cream...maybe next year baby!!:)

Sweet little Sophia was loving that birthday cake ice cream.















The boys and girls crafting away!!!

Traveling Story Hour- Teddy Bear Picnic

Last week we started a fun play date we call Traveling Story Hour. We hope to continue doing these story times in the future. It turned out great. We invited a couple of friends, packed up some snacks, grabbed a book and went on our way!
This time we read "The Teddy Bear Picnic" and all the kiddos brought a bear to enjoy their snack and book reading.

Nana reading the kids the book! (aka my mom)

The babies even joined in on the blanket! :)


My cute little nieces!!!

I love this one of Isaac...he would not let that bear far from his sight. And the funny thing is that's not even his bear he brought.lol
 

Some of the mommas and their sweeties...




I had made each of the kids an Outdoor Color Match game. We played this and the kids had a great time!

 They were to find 2 items of matching color in their book and bring them back to the blanket. They turned in their findings for colorful candies.





What a great morning with my sweet boys!!:)
