We've all had daydreams of the biggest, bestest party ever! What does your dream party look like, kiddo? Design the invitation by writing your name, filling in how old you will be, draw yourself playing a game, and more. Then plan the menu (sausage and ice cream?), circle the best place for your party (park or play place?), and check off some of the awesome stuff you'll get up to (play charades or musical statues?).
In Sarah and Duck Bake a Cake, Sarah and Duck are baking a special cake for Duck’s birthday! They mix flour, milk, and baking powder to make it big and fluffy — but oops! The batter spills! Luckily, the cake starts talking and helps them fix it. When the cake comes out of the oven, Sarah realizes it’s now the cake’s birthday, too! So Sarah, Duck, and the talking cake go to the park to celebrate with songs and fruit loaf. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Sarah & Duck, a kids' show about the adventures between seven-year-old Sarah and her quacky, flappy best friend, Duck.
In The Boston Tea Party Ignites the Revolutionary War, host Andrew Marr describes how Samuel Adams and fellow colonists rebelled against British rule by destroying a shipment of tea in Boston Harbor. This act of defiance would ignite the Revolutionary War and set the stage for the birth of a new nation governed by revolutionary ideals. This video is excerpted from BBC’s A History of the World, a story of human history that uses reenactments, modern footage, and storytelling to explain history’s greatest achievements.
In Interpreting the Boston Tea Party, historian Lucy Worsley learns how opinions of the revolt in Boston have changed. At the time, it was thought of as an aggressive and illegal action. It became known as the Tea Party 50 years after the event. With each retelling, it takes on a new meaning. This video is excerpted from BBC's American History's Biggest Fibs with Lucy Worsley, in which Worsley reveals the myths and manipulations behind American history.
Look closely and color the same pattern that is on the die. Color three party hats to show a three pattern, four balloons to show a four pattern, and five stars to show a five pattern. Then, see if you can figure out the trickier cupcake pattern!
Cut out the shapes and paste to make a picture. Choose from red circles, orange rectangles, yellow triangles, green quadrilaterals, blue pentagons, purple hexagons, and rainbow heptagons (that's a seven-sided figure!). Are there heptagons at your party?
