The Whatcha-macall-it

I Can see you all wondering what exactly a whatcha-macall-it is...well I will tell you, it is a little book, but yet it isn't really a book, There are games and puzzles, you can play I spy, paint a picture, create a turkey, sing Christmas Carols, play a matching game or work on a mad libb with a friend. There are Saturday thoughts and stories to read. And if your feet are really tired, there is a foot soak too. :) Now doesn't that sound fun? Wouldn't you like someone to make a Whatcha-macall-it for you? I created the Whatcha-macall-it for a friend of mine who is currently serving in Iraq. I wanted to make him smile and I knew that my semester was going to be really busy, and didn't want him to think that I had forgotten all about him. Which is where the idea got started...but as you will see...that silly idea might have gotten a little out of control. But I will let you be the judge.




Would anyone like to play "I Spy?" This exercise helps you sharpen your skills at finding small items, I did not make it easy for anyone to find the hidden objects...I had to be sneaky and make it difficult. :)










Oh, I forgot to mention that there are comics too...every Sunday :) Would anyone like to put together a puzzle? Everyone should like a Happy Shark, with red, green, and yellow fish. And a little star fish in the corner to throw everyone off.










And there are word finds too...wouldn't you like to find the hidden words in this colorful word find? I had decided that if I was stuck learning spanish, then other people would have to as well. So I used the colors in spanish to make a word find.










Crafts are also a lot of fun, wouldn't you like to construct a hand turkey? Very first grade, I know, but crafts are fun to do, even if you are 23 and too grown up to do something so silly.










Chirstmas Carols! Singing with friends is always something fun to do :) I seriously doubt that the guys are going to be too happy with the Christmas Carols...cause they have to sing them...and I don't actually know if any of them can sing.










I have my doubts...the foot soak will probably be his LEAST favorite activity. But if your feet were that dirty, wouldn't you want to soak them?










SUDOKU...easy...medium...and HARD. I like SUDOKU, and I think that other people should too, so this is an activity that everyone should become good at. If you want to pass time on a long flight, SUDOKU will keep you very busy...the hours of frustration will fly by.

YEAH! A matching game! :) Who doesn't like matching games? They are fun and you don't have to think while you do them. (Unless of course they are in spanish...then you do)

Paint something AMAZING! You can really paint anything you want and declare it ART!

The Dr. Seuss book guess, how well do you know these stories... Even Kristin had difficulty with these :)

There are 13 book guesses in all...

Did you guess them all correctly?

Questions must be asked concerning the Whatcha-macall-it, I'm still waiting on the answers...

And then it ended...for I ran out of pages. The Whatcha-macall-it is probably around 100 pages long, full of fun activites...like the few that I showed. So do you think that he liked his gift? Do you think that he just might smile? :) :) :)
