Granny Day Camp



Okay.........I just need to brag on my mom at little! I am so lucky to have the greatest mom who is very creative and thoughtful. To help me and the kids out this summer, she created a "Granny Day Camp" where once a week she takes Emma and Luke away for the day and they do fun things together. Each week she has a theme, and they learn about a topic and then do activities related to that theme. They've been to parks, movies, walks, and Houseman's ice cream. They've learned about muskrats, mallard ducks, dragonflys, butterflies, Independence Day. They've collected quarters from almost all of the 50 states. It has been the highlight of each week this summer, and the kids wake up on Mondays all dressed in their special "Granny Day Camp" shirts! Thanks mom, for being such a great Grandma!

Grandmas (& Grandpas)are truly blessings from God. What a wonderful idea and an awesome memory for your kids to have.

Hi Jen!

Just linked to you through Amy's blog. The kids are adorable! Saw the picture of your mom and was hoping you could thank them for us again.

Best wishes,
Ryan and Julie
