Using a cookbook for kids, we made some "Fishy Squishy Squirters" out of fruit roll ups, grapes, decorating gel and mini M&Ms.
Avril went to give one of the fish a kiss, but then she hesitated. You could see her inner struggle. She just couldn't help herself. She had to take a bite.
"...the child should have a set time everyday to read for fun. Begin with half an hour for first graders, and build up to an hour of reading time daily... This is an important part of the child's education: it improves his reading skills, teaches him the habit of sitting still with a book, and reminds him that reading is fun... free reading ought to be spent on literature at or slightly below the child's present reading level so that he can simply enjoy himself. The easier reading will help him increase his speed." The Well Trained Mind: The Guide to Classical Education at Home by Jessie Wise and Susan Wise Bauer
