Stone soup

I've been catching up on making some class books the past few days. It seems like both October, November and December have a lot of activities that we like to make books out of. Plus, the Little People love to read class books that have their pictures in them. One that I finished today is the story of how we made Stone Soup last week. This was a great activity.
