Mary Poppins Sing-A-Long

What a fun way to watch a movie with kids. We had so much fun getting ready for the sing-a-long today. Mary Poppins herself explained the rule of of movie before hand and how to use the goody bags she gave to us. We had fans to blow all the other Nannies away, kazoos to blow for the penguins, small umbrella to wave, candy tuppence to gobble up before the banker would snatch it, firecrackers to pop with Admiral Boom, and a bunch of others that I can not remember.



After a week of worrying the kids costumes arrived and were all updated in time. Nana went as Mary Poppins. Her friend John lent her a fantastic vintage umbrella and handbag to correspond with the Mary hat she made. Pop Pop's went as Bert with a top hart and scarf. Anna and Sam went as the penguin waiters. Charles was Mr. Banks, compete with bower hat, mustache, and fixed kite ... since Charles loves Halloween I knew he would go all out in his costume. We won a DVD copy of the movie and two chocolate bars during the costume contest.
