Let your little take over grocery shopping this week! 🧾🛒🍎 Welcome to Kids Town, where children can explore grown-up life with role-playing and problem-solving. Ever wondered how you can support your little one's learning through play in Kids Town? Here are some tips! ✨⬇️ 🚌 Take cues from your child on how they want you to join their play. In each scenario, help carry the scene forward and expand conversation. 🤔 Some items in the grocery store are non-descript, like small wooden blocks. Ask your child what the item could be so they can be creative and tap into their own knowledge of familiar food! 🚗 Use specific vocabulary and take the role of co-player or play leader. "Let’s wash the car! Let’s use the soft brush to scrub the hood of this blue car."

⏰ Welcome to another #TimeMachineTuesday. Today we're highlighting the 1936 BMW 319 Cabriolet. What happened in 1936? The first production model PPC streetcar was placed in service. The "PPC" ("Presidents' Conference Committee") - later renamed the "Electric Railway Presidents' Conference Committee" (ERPCC) - had a mission to design a streamlined, comfortable, quiet and fast accelerating and braking streetcar. Fun fact: Chicago Surface Lines placed an order for 83 cars in 1938, and would later go on to have the largest PPC fleet ever purchased new by one city - 683 cars! Chicago would stop running streetcars altogether in 1958. #BMW #BMWCabriolet #1936BMW #WhiteCar #CarMuseum #Cargram #CarLovers #30sCar #OldCar #ClassicCar #ChicagoMuseum

My family and I visited the Field Museum today. Their exhibit on the ancient americas was fascinating. The museum store had a phenomenal selection of fiction and nonfiction texts by native writers. I picked up two that have been on my TBR for a while now. Leslie Marmon Silko is one of my all time favorite writers. I was so excited to find this copy of The Turquoise Ledge. I’ve also heard great things about Darcie Little Badger!
