We visited an amazing place called Storybook Forest
Storybook characters and their palaces, homes, and cottages had been constructed for play under a canopy of tall pines in the middle of a forest.
Isabela and Abigail were pretending to be Cinderella and her Prince
The swing on the side of the castle was a thrill for the girls.
Abigail is behind the bars of the house made of cookies and sugar where Hansel and Gretel were held.
The inside and outside of this home was crooked and covered with chalkboard for creativity.
Isabela is bringing us a treat that she made in the home of The Seven Dwarfs. Inside was a table and seven tree stump stools for Snow White and the Dwarfs. The children could make mud pies with the dwarfs’ bowls, spoons, and dirt.
This place was so fun…
It was a place that both adult and child would enjoy. All of the classic stories we have all enjoyed as children were brought to life. This place gave a whole new meaning for pretend play! We were able to step inside of the story and become the characters we have read about.
Inside of the Dr. Seuss Club there were literary messages from the stories for inspiration.
Isabela was having so much fun bouncing from area to area, she did not want to pause for a quick photo!
At least these two humor me and smile at their mommy.
Rapunzel!
A fitting photo for Abigail and her long hair!
Her Prince to rescue her…Jackson was excited about the play castle. He sweetly calls Abigail Rapunzel when her long hair gets in his way.
One of the fun play areas was a Spanish ship. The life size parts of the ship were a lot of fun. Playing pirates was a great opportunity!
By the way Papaw…They want one of these on their playground someday!
The ship required the most energy from their bodies. It required them to go up and down rope ladders and had cool slides and hiding rooms throughout the ship.
“Above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it.” Ronald Dahl
