Day with Alex the Mouse

Towards the end of the school year, each person in Kellen's class got to spend a day with Alex the Mouse.

They project was to spend the day with Alex and then write up a report about the activities they did.

I had already made grilled cheese for Kellen...(I didn't know he would be bringing Alex home) but I thought perfect - Mice love cheese, right? Kellen was happy with the lunch choice and then he decided the activities the rest of the afternoon.

We read There's a mouse about the house

took Alex on a stroller ride

taught him how to ride the tricycle 

and of course the Gator

took him for a ride in the back of the Gator (with a bucket for his sun hat)

and of course some love from Keagan.

I thought this was such a cute project for the kids.  I was surprised with how much initiative and responsibility Kellen took with it.  He kept Alex safe and treated him like a little baby brother or sister..it was very sweet.
