Summer Book Club

Ben was invited to be in a summer book club. There were 6 boys, each one chose a book then had all the other boys over for an afternoon of doing activities based around the book. Ben's book was Dragon Slayer's Acadamy. We did an obstacle course to test our dragon hunting skills, found treasures with our toes in the bubbles, made castle and dragons, had a fabulous lunch of eel on a roll (just like they ate in the book), told really bad knock knock jokes, and had a scavenger hunt (written in pig latin) to find the dragon's treasure.

The summer book club was a ton of fun. All the parents planned fun things for the boys and it was great motivation for Ben to keep up on his reading this summer. (I do need to add that we spent probably 3 hours each book just looking for the book--one we have never did find). I hope that we do it again next summer.
