On a Need to Know Basis

Our Activity Day this week involved "Mission Possible"- each girl received these instructions in a manila envelope with express instructions to not open it up until they were completely alone:

WARNING:

TOP SECRET – DO NOT REVEAL CONTENTS OF THIS ENVELOPE *

Your mission (if you choose to accept it) is to complete at least two of these tasks BEFORE the next Activity Day (July 27, 2011). Make sure NO ONE finds out about your mission (especially brothers and sisters).*

*A parent may be included in your mission as needed.

· Pick up trash in a public area

· Do yard work for someone

· Make a treat and drop it off for a neighbor

· Clean up a mess at home that you did not make

· Write a nice note to a family member

· Clean an entire room in your home (other than your room)

· Make a card and drop it off for an elderly person

· Be very nice/helpful (with no negative comments) for a full 24 hours with your family

Once you have completed at least 2 tasks write about 1 of them in your journal. Come prepared to share your completed missions on July 27th at Activity Days. Those that are successful in completing their mission will receive a sweet reward.

We got together and cleaned/sanitized the nursery toys while talking about what secret service they each did. Here's their sweet reward....
