Last night, we had a few brave souls who endured the weather for the library’s Stuffed Animal Sleepover. We read some great stories, we made each animal a small nightlight to keep them company in the dark, and then we said goodnight to our friends.
As it turns out, our stuffed animals had some other ideas about the night’s activities …
After hopping out of their snuggly beds, the wide-awake toys made their way to the craft table to draw pictures for their people.
It seems that crafts were only the start of the fun:
The next stop was a computer, just right for playing games or watching a video.
I would have thought that crafts and games were enough for three sleepy toys, but no! They were at the library, and they wanted to read a book, too.
First, they went looking for a good book to share.
They were tired after climbing up to the books, so they rested on a shelf for just a few minutes.
At last! A book to share with each other. It was a good story. They read it three times.
Fuzzy and Teddy thought it would be fun to try a hand-clapping game (I believe this looks like Peas Porridge Hot).
After all the excitement, the animals were finally quieting down for the night. Along the way back to bed, they found a friend who wanted to be in the picture, too.
Snoopy was very very tired, and the animals were nearly as sleepy.
At last, tucked back into bed for a quiet night at the library. Goodnight, sleep tight, sweet toys!
Absolutely adorable!! I love these stuffed animal sleep-overs.
