Let the Adventure Begin! Theme Nights for Families with Young Children: Fun & Easy Family Night Activities
William Schoff, educator and author of I'm Not Feeling Like Myself Today:
Funny Poems for Kids and Adults
I love Laurie’s commitment to family and her innovative ideas to help parents with young children make family time a priority. As a mother, teacher and preschool director, I know how important it is for parents to enrich the total development of their children, create a love for learning, and expand their educational experiences. Family theme nights will do just this and at the same time strengthen your family relationships and create wonderful memories of fun and laughter. Let your family adventure begin!

What a wonderful resource! I can use these themes along with our curriculum. You could even turn these into birthday parties. Exciting!
