Poem-in-Your-Pocket Day
April 30th is Poem-in-Your-Pocket Day.
We celebrated our first PIYP last year with teeny, tiny felt envelopes http://mamadrool.blogspot.ca/2015/04/poem-in-your-pocket-day-april-30th.html
so this year our only task was to change up the poems.
Since we're working with Gnomes & Fairies this week, it works out well that these tiny letters can be delivered through Fairy Mail!
When O was born, a friend in Shanghai gifted us with 'Here's a Little Poem'; the best book of poetry on our shelves. It combines a collection of short poems geared for children, with illustrations from Polly Dunbar, making it a modern masterpiece!
Mum is having a baby!
I'm shocked, I'm all at sea!
What's she want another one for?
What's the matter with me?!
