Friends! Kids! And those who are still kids at heart!Summer has blown by faster than a velociraptor on a skateboard, and you know what that means—FALL! And SCHOOL! Well, for some that is. And if you’re one of the lucky kids (or grown ups) who’s embarking on a new academic adventure, you very well know a bit of the excitement, chaos, and anticipation of that first day of school. But what you probably didn’t know is that while you were unboxing that new set of crayons, somewhere past the fields and beyond the woods, the cats of Cat County have also been going back to school. And to celebrate a promising new school year, they asked if I could document their big day when all the school cats scamper back to their studies. And let me tell you--it was quite the hubbub of activity!
For you kids and kids at heart, I have a couple challenges for you. First off, can you find the following things in this picture?
- A fresh apple
- A pet lizard
- A pink skirt
- A teddy bear
- A cat reading a book
- A butterfly
And for extra brownie points, can you find Kitty and Coco?
My second challenge is an art challenge: draw a picture of your favorite school activity. If you send a picture of your drawing to me, I’ll feature it on my blog! Just make sure to send it to vanderjess10 (at) gmail.com by September 30th. Have fun with it, and be creative!I’m looking forward to seeing your drawings—enjoy the rest of September!
