Bike-oree
Comments(3)
So the title of this post is Bike-oree (patterned after the word camporee — if you’ve ever been around Boy Scouts, you know what I am referring to). See, these ideas are based around bikes instead of camping. Get it?
But, before I really get into what I want to say, I want to bring your attention to a comment from Grandma Shelley that she made on my post about invitations to grandma camp. She indicated that she has dozens of ideas on her Grandma’s Little Pearls site under Grandkids Camp Out. And she does!
Check out her invitations and schedule for 2009, her sand art craft, and her pine cone critter craft, the butterfly habitat craft, and the hand washing station.
Now if that isn’t enough to give you ideas (and, for me, a severe case of depression because I’m not as creative as she is . . .), she also holds a Christmas Day Camp. There’s the Christmas Reindeer Cupcake craft, the snowman fridge magnet, the gingerbread house ornament, the light strand, and the Christmas picture frame. (Grandma Shelley, will you adopt me as one of your grandchildren? Please? Please? Please?)
My intention of this posting was to talk about having a bike-oree for your grandchildren. I got sidetracked (like my kids always harass me about . . .) in reading Grandma Shelley’s site. So, I’ll post my ideas next time. Promise. Well, maybe. Who knows what will happen next time . . .?
And if Grandma Shelley’s Google ranking doesn’t skyrocket into outer space because of all of the links that I have here to her site, I will be a monkey’s uncle. Er . . . aunt . . .
Now, excuse me while I go back to reading more ideas from Grandma’s Little Pearls. (I highly recommend that you check out her ideas, too. Plan on spending several hours reading it . . .)

Hey you. Thank you for all of the kind recommendations to my blog.
I look forward to reading your post titled Bike-oree. I am waiting for my grands to all get old enough to host what I am going to call a “Bike Hike”. I’ve had ideas for it rattling around in my head for a few years. So, I look forward to your ideas too.
Thanks again,
Grandma Shelley

Grandma Shelley puts me in the shade, too! I can’t keep up with her or you when it comes to doing creative activities with grandchildren. I just have to keep telling myself, “It’s not a competition!”
Susan, your comment about ‘it’s not a competition’ is so good and wise! Don’t we grandma’s sometime feel we are competing with our grandchildren’s ‘other’ grandma and then other grandma’s in general???
