May's Sibshop started with an active game of Charades. Our Sibshoppers were good actors AND good guessers. They couldn't be stumped even with the difficult words and phrases like "Spring Break!"
However, we were all kinda stumped by a new game we tried called "Annie, Annie Over!" We couldn't get it quite right but we still got some good exercise as we ran around like chickens with our heads cut off!
One of our discussion activities was called "Touch the Lives of Others." We talked about ways that our mothers have influenced our lives for good and then talked about ways we can influence others for good, including our sibs with special needs.
The kids were super creative and came up with wonderful ideas to share about their moms as well as wonderful ideas for reaching out to others.
We wrapped up May's sibshop by devouring the "Muddy Buddy" treats we had made earlier while we read the book "Just Because" together as a group. The kids shared their similar experiences with their own sib as we read about this boy and his older sister with special needs.
