Book Group-- Peter Pan and A Veiw to Saturday

Reading is an important part of our homeschool. We love to listen to books on tape, read aloud together at home and read books, then gather with friends who've read the same book to discuss and have fun with activities based on the book we've just read.

Book group time has come again. Based on the age of the child we read either, A View to Saturday or Peter Pan.
In our house we only got the first book read, but the younger kids had quite a lot of fun acting out the sword fights of the second!

Could it be?.... Peter Pan or the dreaded Captain Hook!


In the book "A View to Saturday" we read about the lives of four kids and how they work together to win a 'competition of the minds' type tournament. We recreated an event often happening in the book--an afternoon tea!

We got out the fancy dishes and little finger sandwiches and had fun trying many different herbal teas and learning a bit about proper etiquette.
