Mallory and her friend Morgan were playing at our house this afternoon. Mallory came and asked me for some tape and I watched as she and Morgan went and posted this sign on the light post in front of our house.
A little while later, I was looking for them because Morgan needed to head home and I saw them down the street with the wagon. When they got back home I asked what they were doing. They were out picking up litter. I snapped a picture of them emptying the litter they found into the garbage can. I had them go in the house and wash up before sending Morgan home.
I was thinking about what spurred this idea in their heads. On the way to Yuba Lake earlier, the girls were looking at a few books we brought along for the trip. One of the books we had was "Fancy Nancy--Every Day is Earth Day". I read it aloud to the girls and maybe that book got Mallory thinking a little. Hopefully she doesn't go tooo GREEN and get mad at us--we have a lot we could change to be more Environmentally conscience at our house--it would be a good change though!!
If you haven't read any "Fancy Nancy" books, you need to! They are cute, cute books and they teach lots of great new vocabulary words!!

Cute girls! That's awesome, maybe we should read that book at our house!
I know...Morgan kept talking about driving past to see if that sign was still up. Every time she plays at your house she ends up doing something creative/constructive. Thanks for helping me raise my daughter! :)
