I am so excited to have Jillian from A Mom With a Lesson Plan here to guest post today. Make sure to pop over to her blog to check it out when you are done reading the post–you’ll love it!
One of our favorite books is It Looked Like Spilt Milk. We’ve read it over and over since my kids were really little. As my kids are getting older (8 and 7), I’ve been looking for more grown up activities to pair with it. I found some really fun ways to play with and study clouds for big kids (and little kids too 😉 ).
Of course the first thing I would recommend is getting your hands on the book, laying out a blanket and enjoying a little story time under some white fluffy clouds.
