SALT LAKE HOME EDUCATORS

For our September meeting we had a tea party. We enjoyed various herbal teas and read poetry. Several people shared a favorite poem or a poem that their children enjoy.

The idea of teatime poetry is to simply enjoy poetry with your children.  First prepare a nice teatime treat (or buy one) and set a nice table. Then, while the tea steeps, everybody looks through poetry books to find a poem to share. Finally, between sips, each person gets a chance to read-aloud a poem of choice.

When everyone is done sharing poetry, you can read any book aloud while your children finish sipping and munching. Try it sometime. It?s a lot of fun.

Also, please note the sidebar. Our October meeting has been changed to Wednesday, October 22 because of a scheduling conflict with Barnes & Noble.
