We have joined the Virtual Summer Reading Program hosted by Toddler Approved. July’s author is Don & Audrey Wood.

July Summer VirtualBook Club

We read Sweet Dream Pie by Audrey Wood & Mark Teague. It was a pie fill with lots of sugary candies and then what happens while the pie is made and after everyone eats the pie. Sadly it looks like to book is out of print, but you can get it from your local library.

What you need: playdough in many colors, pie tin or small bowls, rolling pins, and dull butter knife for cutting playdough.

    1. Yes and they played with it well after we were done as well. It kept them happy for a long time playing with their pie.
