Made a Book

Mikey actually wrote this journal entry at the end of April break. It was just a quick note to make sure that his friends at school got to see the book he wrote.

For our purposes in the blog, I thought it made sense to show you the cover so you’d understand why ‘Mikey’s Journal’ will be in a different format this coming week. We made a page of the book for each day of the week.

We stayed home over April break, but we planned out fun adventures for each day. Tomorrow, I’ll share some suggestions for exciting yet balanced Staycations with your little ones.
