Yoohoo Boats!

Love that students from a school in Oconee County, Georgia, made Yoohoo boats after reading The Small Adventure of Popeye and Elvis.

Two Things on Tuesday

Thing One

I love this so much.

Translation: I am good at readin'

 

Thing Two

A long, long time ago, I had an idea for a book that involved little boats sent sailing down a creek.

I wanted the boats to be cool. But I'm not too cool. 

So I was thrilled to get help from a cool dude from Maine who made a boat from a Yoohoo drink box.

Here is the original Yoohoo boat made by Ben from Maine:

 

I love that there is a race car stashed inside.

I asked Ben how to make one and here is what he said:

First I put the straw in and drank it.  Then I unfolded the top to be the front of the boat.  Then I cut out the top right side.  I didn't use any glue or tape.

Since then, I have had the great pleasure of seeing Yoohoo boat art made by student from all over the country. 

This was a painting done by a teacher in Wilton, CT!!

 

 

 

Things I Love Thursday

I love these Yoo-hoo boats made by Mrs. Terlecky and Mrs. Harper's fifth grade class in Dublin, OH!

 They made them as an activity related to their reading of The Small Adventure of Popeye and Elvis.

Thanks, y'all! I love them!!
