Spin the Bottle To Choose a Book

I picked a few of our favorite books and put them in a circle. Then I had the girls take turns spinning a bottle. Whichever book it pointed to, we read.



They each got two turns, so we read four books together. They loved it!

What a great twist to that game. I might do that with movies when they are having trouble deciding what to watch. Thanks again for interviwing me I had a lot of positive feedback on it. So many of my friends and family love your blog too.

What a great idea! I had to comment because I LOVED Harry the Dirty Dog when I was younger. I'll have to find it for my son.
