Moon Day 2011

On July 20, 1969, man first walked on the moon. I'm finally getting around to blogging how we celebrated the anniversary this year.

We started with moon shaped pancakes. Tee Hee.

While driving in the car, we sang songs with "moon" in the lyrics, such as "Blue Moon" and "That's Amore" ("When the moon hits the sky...").

I told the kids it would be fun to do everything slowly like astronauts walking on the moon.

At a park, the kids played astronaut tag. One was an astronaut and one was a space monster.

And of course, it's always fun to give your food fun names to go along with what you're celebrating. For dinner we had "moon nuggets" and "lunar wraps."

What other ideas do you have for celebrating Moon Day?
