Presenting box number four. This week my boys opened the dog book box in our continued adventure of the traveling book boxes. Summer is almost over, so we are winding down on our book box adventures. However, I really did enjoy keeping them engaged this summer with books and activities. They were excited each time I told them a new book box had "arrived." As always, the Clifford box had books, activities, games, crafts, and a snack surprise.

Clifford
Book on stakes. Surprise your little one with a “storywalk.” The stakes are numbered. Push them in the
ground and let your little one walk to read the story. Leave plenty of distance
between each page of the book. See example here:
·
Additional
Clifford books to read
·
The
Puppy who Went to School by Gail Herman
·
Spike
by Paulette Bogan
·
Little
red dog reading buddy
·
Clifford
Suckers-Attach two felt red ears and some googly eyes to make a Clifford sucker
snack for a treat at the end of your storywalk or treasure hunt (these were not
quite as cute as I hoped, and hopefully they won’t scare your child. Lol!)
·
Treasure
Hunt-Set up a dog bone search. Clues are numbered with recommended hiding
places. (This would be fun for a Clifford birthday party too. Let me know if you need the template)
·
Dog
Bowls and placemats-Be a little silly. Serve your child breakfast or lunch in a
dog bowl...or even popcorn.Guaranteed to make them giggle. Our cocker Mia looks on very jealous. Ha! It is not even her bowl. I bought it at the $1 store.
·
Clifford
Maze-Let your child use the paw print stamp in each square to help Clifford
find the way to his doghouse. (Red ink pad included)
·
Have
fun! Make sure everything on this list is returned to the book box for the next
child.
Let
me know when you have worn out your book box and we will trade. I am hoping to
trade about every 3 weeks and just meet up with you. Thanks! Michelle
