Blog Tour and competition: Midnight Magic


Today is my stop on the blog tour for Midnight Magic! I was so excited to read this magical verse story which is full of gorgeous purple illustrations.

Midnight is a magical kitten looking for a family who will appreciate how special and fun he really is. When he meets Trixie, they pair become immediate friends and go on a magical nighttime adventure - bringing her Dad and Nan along for the ride too!

I read this story with my six year old as soon as it arrived and we both loved it. Midnight is a mischievous main character and we could never guess what he would get up to next. The verse made this so much fun to read aloud. 

My post today (kindly provided by Little Tiger) is all about bubble poems!



In Midnight Magic, our fearless kitten hero attempts to impress Trixie and say thank you by sharing some bubble based pranks!

We can use a bubble as a starting idea to make our own poems.


Draw six bubbles spaced out on a blank piece of paper, and put a word in each one! These words could be a noun or an adverb, the more outlandish the better.

Use the activity sheet below as a starting point to think of some ideas.

Using your imagination, think of a way to link each bubble together. 

Is the word in the bubble the one that rhymes? How do you get from one to the other? Remember with Midnight Magic, this could be as simple as a spell.

Share your poems for a Midnight paw of approval. And hopefully your imagination will start to fizzle, sparkle and pop with lots of new ideas.


Competition!
