We recently checked out the book Room on the Broom at the library. The book is about a witch and her cat who are happily flying through the sky on a broomstick when the wind picks up and blows away the witch's hat, then her bow, and then her wand! Luckily, three helpful animals find the missing items, and all they want in return is a ride on the broom. It becomes tricky for them all to have room on the broom. Soon disaster strikes with a hungry dragon, but her friends save her. In return, the witch makes a new broom that fits all of her friends.
Today as we were playing outside, I got a broom out to sweep up some dirt. Emily immediately took the broom and got a bucket (her cauldron) to pretend to the be the witch on the broom. She encouraged Lily to ride her witch's broom as she mimicked the story of the Room on the Broom. Emily is such a bright girl who often connects stories to events in real life. I love this sweet witch!
