Our Book Review:
We sat in a circle and I turned pages and asked questions about the book. I had a small cap full of water and if the child answered right- they splashed the water in my face. If they answered wrong- they were splashed in the face. (it's just a silly game)

Treat: Before the kids come, hide a treat and then make clues (scavenger hunt) that the kids can run around, read clues and find their treat. (I had transformed M&M filled candy canes into reindeer- with construction paper antlers.... )
