Wreck This Journal- Day 1

I bought a one of these journals thinking it would be fun to do over the summer with my girls. They are 4&5, so some of the things are kind of over their heads,but I figured since it's going to be a collaborative effort, I will fill out those pages. 

The journal all shiny and new!

We started with the "crack the spine" page. 

Some jumping up and down occurred. Full spine crackage happening here. 

Next we moved onto the page that instructed us to tie a string around the book and drag it along for a walk. The neighbors may now think we are crazy. 

Oh no! A wet sidewalk. No worries. 

I hear the ice cream truck! Abandon journal. 

Dad said we could get ice cream from the previously mentioned truck. Must do a happy dance with journal. 

Your eyes are not broken. Children is really spelled completely wrong on the back of the ice cream truck. 

Journal is again abandoned. 

Books don't do well on walks....

The kids are excited about this book. Hopefully I can keep their interest and continue on the journey to journal completion. 

Rapunzel, Rapunzel, don't let down your hair!

Having 2 small girls in this house, we have our share of dolls. Dolls with hair that isn't easily managed by small hands. So guess who's in charge of keeping these wild manes tamed ? You guessed it. The mama. The biggest offender in this house is the numerous Rapunzels (Disney's Tangled)  we own.  Having hair to your ankles doesn't come without problems. Rapunzel had lost a lot of her famous length when her hair became all tangled up around her elbows. So armed with a brush and some detangler spray I set out to restore (at least one) Rapunzel to her original glory. With a slight scalp saving revision.

How things started. 

Halfway through. You can see how much length we were missing here. 

Looking good after an intense brushing!

To keep things under control, we've decided Rapunzel should wear a braid from now on.

She can't really afford to lose much more hair. 

Though we didn't let it go to waste.
