Ever since seeing an owl lapbook on a friend's blog I have been wanting to do one. I have spent way too much time thinking about it and trying to get motivated to do it. The motivation just wasn't there and I was tired of thinking about it so I suggested to the girls that we just "let it go." Surprisingly, they pleaded with me to do this with them so I couldn't just "let it go." Well, Thursday afternoon while the kids were in theatre I got an iced coffee from McD's. That's all it took. I came home with 30 minutes to spare before picking them up and sat down and planned and prepared their lapbooks. Just like that. So, from now on when thoughts of a lapbook are spinning around in my head but I just can't get it together to do it I will make a trip to McD's and then go for it. This afternoon we put them together and they are almost complete. We just need to add pictures of our pellet dissection and a little info about what owl pellets are. It was a really simple one to do but really cemented all that info in their little brains.

Beautiful job girls and Momma! Well done!
Nothing like a little coffee to stoke your motivation! I hit Starbucks for a Venti and off I go...:)
I think the lapbooks are great. They will love those when they are older.
Oh, they are great. I love them. I love all of the different little booklets and fold out thingy's. (That's what they are called right? LOL)
