going to drive them, you’re going to
look at license plates.
Start your engines!
Talk about your favorite road trip.
Where did you go?
Year:
Destination:
Companions:
Is there a change jar in the house?
How about a piggy bank?
Today’s adventure calls for a penny,
so go and find one!
Look at the year your penny was minted.
Write a story about something that
happened to you that year.
It was the year:
Think about flowers and
tell us what they mean to you.
Do you love them,
do you love them not...
What kind of flowers do you
(or your true love) like best and why?
Tell a story about giving or
receiving flowers:
If you could travel anywhere in the
world, where would it be?
Africa? Brazil? The Galapagos Islands?
Imagine you’re there and
write Little G a postcard.
Where did you go?
Paste a photo of your perfect place here,
or draw a picture of it:
Dear
Greetings from

When I was
years old,
It was the year
I lived in
Every day I went to
and spent my time
The internet was not around yet,
so for fun I would:
It’s you! You two are going into
the kitchen to see what kind of
concoction you can create
together. Put your apron on,
things might get messy.
What are your favorite memories of
concocting special things in the kitchen?
Your kitchen memories as a kid:
Your kitchen memories as a parent:
What kind of animals are
roaming around your town?
You may be surprised at all
the creatures you can find!
Heads up: Binoculars are helpful
for this adventure.
Talk about some pets you’ve had.
If you’ve lived a petless life, why?
Mmmm, food. Think about
your favorite meal or
snack-time treat.
Is your mouth watering yet?
What is your favorite home-cooked meal?
Who do you like to share it with?
If you could share a meal with any historical figure,
living or dead, who would it be and why?
Pretend your ship sank and you
washed up on a deserted island.
You have food and water.
What else do you need to survive?
It happens in movies more than it happens in real life,
but what if you were stranded on a deserted island?
What are some things that you would
take with you?
Who are some people that you would
take with you?
Guess what? You’re still stuck on that
deserted island. Even if you had a cell
phone, you wouldn’t get reception!
So write Little G a message, put it
in a bottle, throw it in the sea
and hope it floats to Little G.
What would you like to say to Little G
from your temporary island home?
Dear Little G,
Go get your favorite snack and
eat it! You can’t have adventures
on an empty stomach, can you?
After you eat your snack, tape the wrappers or
draw a picture here:
What is another way to treat yourself?
Warm up your pipes.
It’s time to sing your all-time
favorite tune!

private but have no privacy.
Any language begins with one word,
so get started!
