Fairy Tales

We're studying the Middle Ages right now and we just finished a mini-unit on fairy tales. We read lots of fairy tales, of course, like these:


and Rapunzel; The White Witch; Jack and The Beanstalk; anything by the Grimm brothers...

The two oldest boys wrote their own fairy tales and words cannot express how proud I am of them. I bought some fairy tale-themed scrapbook paper that one of our sons used to make his into a beautiful 8x8 bound book.

We did the Evan-Moor Pocket Books for Fairy Tales:



Here's a picture of our oldest making his elf for The Elves & The Shoemakers:
Super cute project, by the way, for multiple ages (we had 2 2yr olds, a 4 yr old, a 7 yr old and a 9 yr old make the pocket books. it was a fun family activity daily for a week).

Don't forget to watch some movies, too!
