Happy Birthday Grinch!
He puzzled and puzzled till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before! Maybe Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. Maybe Christmas... perhaps... means a little bit more! And what happened then? Well, in Whoville they say that the Grinch's small heart grew three sizes that day. And then the true meaning of Christmas came through, and the Grinch found the strength of ten Grinches plus two. Our wonderful library put on a party for the now 50 year old green mischief maker, and Gracie and I had a wonderful time celebrating.
There were so many kids there, I lost count after 50 or so! They read the story of course, and then there were plenty of activities. Gracie decorated a Christmas tree cut out. She colored some ornaments and did a maze worksheet and a count by number worksheet too. Then we took a break and saw the 1966 version on DVD and had Who Pudding. Gracie loved this part! They gave each kid a small bowl of vanilla pudding and let them put sprinkles on top and eat it with a red twizzler. As you can imagine, she keeps asking if we can do it at our house.
After the video She stood in line and got a balloon puppy, but wouldn't sit and pose with the Grinch so I could snap a picture. Someone was dressed up as the Grinch, and most of the kids ran in terror. Gracie didn't exactly run, but she wouldn't go anywhere near him.
The days birthday activities were super cute, and I am so glad Gracie and I went!
