Impromptu Spelling Bee

Supplies don't always get put away before bed at night. Needless to say we often eat breakfast with a pile in the middle of the table. Yesterday it was a drawer of crayons on top of a pile of coloring pages printed from various sites. Just so happens Grace pulled out a blue crayon. Lee piped up with, "I can spell that". And so it began, a Crayola crayon spelling bee. Colors that came up: Tumbleweed, Scarlet, Red, Orange, Mauvelous, Violet, Gold. The kids wondered if this could count for their day's reading. I simply said, no this is just for pure fun.
