Let's Do Nothing is a great book to jumpstart a discussion about imagination. In this story the two main characters realize that it is impossible to do absolutely nothing, but they tried really hard! I spoke to the children about how, during the summer, there may be times when they are bored, and this book gives some ideas for imagination games.
The afternoon class had a chance to watch a video of the California Raisins. It was a funny story filled with classic R & B music. The video is no longer available, but the 30 minute movie is available on youtube:
