What a great way to finish up my summer reading programs! Hook up the Wii (thank you teen volunteers), turn on a Just Dance game video and let the kids (1st-5th) dance. Okay, so there was a little more going on, but it was pretty simple. We handed out glow in the dark sticks to make into bracelets as they walked in. I set out bowls of popcorn and water bottles on one table. On another, teens were helping kids with a dance painting (put paper in a Pringles can with a marble (or dried beans in this case) and a few small dollops of paint and shake away as you dance...just make sure that lid is very secure or you'll have a Jackson Pollock activity room. Lastly, when taking a break from dancing, a teen taught the kids how to do the Cup Song from the movie Pitch Perfect. They had a great time performing a mini-concert for the parents who were there. The kids had a blast and it couldn't have been easier to put together. Now on to Fall...
