Welcome Dear Readers! I thought it would be fun to post the very first Activity Page for Grown Up Children!
Let’s start with some hidden picture fun!
Activity #1:
Uh oh! It seems Arianna Slippington slipped into a vat of syrup again! Poor, dear, clumsy Arianna! Now she has all sorts of things stuck to her! Can you find them?
How many things did you find hidden in Arianna’s hair and stuck to her clothes?
Did you find 8 things? Good for you! What about 10 ten things? That’s just super! But if you found all 12 things then you are very very very good at finding things stuck to someone who fell into a vat of syrup and got 12 things stuck to them. Give yourself a great, big gold star!
Activity #2
Uh oh! Dear Readers! After slipping into a vat of syrup it looks like poor, dear, clumsy Arianna Slippington got herself into another jam! She accidentally (or maybe on purpose) ran over her hairdresser at the drive-through beauty salon! Whoops! Poor, dear, clumsy Arianna Slippington!
Now Arianna is on death row and in just a little while Arianna will be served her very last meal. Cut out the Arianna paper doll and the outfit you would like her to wear for her very last meal.
Which outfit will you choose for Arianna?
Oh very good! The outfit you picked was a very good choice!
In fact, poor, dear, clumsy Arianna Slippington looks so adorable in the outfit you picked for her last meal, you deserve not one, but TWO GOLD STARS!
Activity #3:
Now it’s time to connect the dots to see where poor, dear, clumsy Arianna Slippington will go next!
Connect the Dots to find out where poor, dear, clumsy Arianna will go next!
Did you successfully connect the dots? Let’s find out. Does your picture look like this?
Yay! You connected the dots successfully.
And good news! It looks like poor, dear, clumsy Arianna Slippington made it to heaven after all!! Don’t you just love it when activity pages have a happy ending?
____________________________________________________________
Well, this concludes today’s activity page for grown up children, Dear Readers! Please check back soon for more activity page fun. Until then, remember to exercise caution when walking near a vat of syrup or driving through the hair salon.
Until next time . . . I love you

fantastic! beth
Thanks Beth! 😀
How awesome will this be when I can hold it in my hands? (Just a friendly reminder that I have money stashed away to buy your book, darling).
Oh boy good! Because Bedtime Stories for Grown Up Children is at the proofreaders now! So progress is being made! Maybe I’ll include some of these in between stories (well we’ll see how it goes).
YAY!
lol!! the activities that float over your head Linda XD
My brain, Peanuts made me do it!
uh huh blame it on that sure 😛
But I have to have something to blame my immaturity on, Andy!
Awe alright you get this one lol 😉
Yay! I got one! Yay! I am immature . . . hey wait a minute . . . why am I so happy about it?
*POINT* 😛
Haha! Hey did you get that cool happy face with the cool black eyes and the red smile?
cause somebody *cough* Linda *cough* drew on my face on my nap! 😛
Wellll, I couldn’t help myself! What can I say? I thought you were a deeper sleeper!
oh I’ll getcha and with my Moses staff too!!
Noooooooooo!
Now that I’ve connected the dots, how am I going to get the marker off my computer screen?
Funny you should ask. It just so happens I’m selling computer screen marker remover for just $19.99 and if you act now I’ll throw in another one free!
Brilliant – however when it comes to how many things are stuck to her I had to give up as her head hair was too much for an old fool like me to count with any degree of accuracy!
Well, bless you for trying, Mike!
Darn it, Linda. Now, I have lines all over my screen from connecting the dots. I hope you don’t plan finger painting for the next session.
Finger painting on computers screens! Just as soon as I can procure some finger paint computer screen solvent available for purchase I”m on it!!
I get 3 gold stars and I’m a hairstylist by trade so I can help her!
You are really a hair stylist!? She needs your and Hiccup’s help — It’s an emergency!!
I am! Hiccup’s on the way!
You are!! Oh that is so cool! I’ve always thought it would be fun to be a hair stylist
Honestly for me it’s not. It’s a viscous world. I haven’t worked in it in years. I still cut Hubby’s hair and my own. 🙂
Oh well, I can see how you could have a lot of trouble with “the public” . I used to be a waitress and people could be really viscous! That’s a good word for it. Once, I even had a guy get up out of his chair and shake me because his food was taking too long. I was just a kid so I didn’t do anything about it but nowadays I would have had him arrested.
That is so cool that you can cut your own hair and hubbys, tho. How convenient that would be!
Oh man people really are brutal eh?! I’m sorry that happened to you.
Maybe this is TMI but I’ve had a client, use the salon chair as a washroom, and not just pee. Ugh!
It is convenient that I can cut our hair!
Say What?!? It doesn’t get any worse than that! Bucky! Oh I’m so glad you don’t have to do that anymore.
Me too!!
Last meals are the best! Thanks, as always, for the wisdom dressed up as yuks! 🙂
Ah Thanks so much Tom! You comments always make my day brighter!
Please do more activity pages! Maybe the math lady can create one for us and the drawling lady can add a few of her own too! Please oh please!
Oh that is such a good idea! I smell an activity book coming on. And I think “smell” is the appropriate verb in this case!
I love the idea of a drive in hair salon. Can you open one near us?
I know! I love it too Ronnie! And if you didn’t like your hair — you could peel out without leaving a tip. (Or run over a foot depending on how bad your hair turned out)!
No fair! It’s obvious the fraction and the letter “L” were missing from the connect the dots.
I think whoever ended up with the right picture cheated.
I know a little grown up child that got up on the wrong side of the bed today!
