I wish...

We have been learning about Fairy Tales (which hopefully you have been hearing about). We really focus on the different parts: starting with "Once upon a time," ending with a "happily ever after" and having some sort of magic/fantasy in the middle. I try to find some lesser known tales, so we can expand their knowledge beyond the well known. For example we read "Puss in Boots" today. And last week the "Fisherman & his Wife." The topic today was making and granting wishes. This was fun and following our discussion we drew pictures. Look for those! Discuss other wishes they would make. (Most kids had more than one idea). Tomorrow we will be making an illustrating our own original tale. This should be interesting...
