Our homeschool: Flat Stanley is home!

Today we had a great surprise in the mail--Megan's Flat Stanley is home from his trip to Florida!!!  Let me tell you, the Guerra family did a WONDERFUL job!  The kids were squealing as they looked through their package.

The package contained:

-funny newspaper cartoon about a family doing the Flat Stanley project 
-pamphlets from Disney, Universal Studios, and Busch Gardens.

-family picture from our hosts

-worksheet about animals in Florida
-postcards
-a sweet seashell gift 

-our journal, all filled out





In the journal, we got to see what Stanley did while he was away.  It looks like he had a great time!  They had a craft day, tea time, holiday decorating, and more!  But the thing that had us all laughing and just tickled Megan SO MUCH was this picture:

While away, Stanley met the MAYOR of St. Petersburg, Florida! Here he is with the Mayor and the Guerra family. Isn't that awesome!?!

She said, "I can't believe that the Mayor held my Flat Stanley!!!"

The Guerra kids also made Stanley a karate gee and took him to class with them! 

I would definitely recommend participating in the Flat Stanley exchange to everyone.  This was really such a good experience for all of my children!  I got a lot of great ideas from our host families and can't wait until the next swap!!!
