Mummies In the Morning

The other day we hosted another Magic Tree House book club. I think this is a lot of fun for the kids. It's a good book review for Audra and the others.

We did Mummies in the Morning since Halloween is next week.

We discussed the book- characters, plot, climax, etc. We played a game asking different questions from the book to make sure they understood the plot.

Then, we talked about Egypt and mummies. We watched a short video about pyramids (we are studying a lot about Egypt right now in school, anyway, and it is so cool to be learning so much about this awesome time period! So many cool things to learn about- the girls are loving it!). Then, the kids wrote their names using Hieroglyphs.


 And, the favorite part of the day: Wrapping each other up as mummies! The kids LOVED this part!
