Book Club (Apple Trouble--Ouch!)

Eva played briefly

Amy, the energetic lady, has had dreams of a preschool book club for some time. She organized this one at Mel's house. The children came and she read to them from Apple Trouble (which used to be called Ouch!). Then they completed an easy dot to dot and colored an apple picture. Then came the snack: the children helped peel, chop, and cook homemade apple sauce. While the apples cooked down (20 minutes) the children played outside and the moms made the craft--a stuffed hedgehog with felt props to reenact the story! A fun time for all. How did Amy do it? *The cost to participate was $5. **Amy ordered the books from Scholastic for $1, she found the car wash mits at the dollar store (before Father's Day) and bought the felt on sale At Joanne's. The apples were seconds from a local grower.)
