Day 2 -Oh the Thinks you can Think --Super Activity

This was the Super Activity by Mom and Dad. It was a blast and took along time to prepare. Thanks Mom and Dad! So they first got us all together and read us this poem:

Congratulations! Today is your day
You’re off to great places, You’re off and away.
You have brains in your head, you have feet in your shoes
You can steer yourself any direction you choose.
Think left and think right and think low and think high
Oh the thinks you can think up if only you try.
Today you’re required to make your own movie
So remember the places you go must be groovy.
We’ve provided a list of things you must do
You choose the place, direction, and who.
It’s important to use all the props in the box
Because if you don’t some points will be dox!!
Imagine yourself on Mulberry Street
And all the characters you can meet.
Remember to be as loose as a goose
For the theme you are using is from Dr. Seuss.
Now when you are done bring your team back for lunch
There’s sure to be something for each to munch.
We’ll watch your movie right after dinner
So we can see who is the big winner!
