Our Summer Reading Challenge, Weekly Challenge and Reading BINGO are back with new fun ways to win a great list of prizes. Check out the cover of the paper for a full list of prizes and make sure to enter for your chance to win.

Speaking of contests, did you see the new Gift Card Contest this month? If you love to color and want to invent a new color of your own, you can win ice cream, waffles, shakes and more.

There are many things to keep everyone busy during the month of August. Be sure to enjoy swimming, playing outside, ice cream and anything that reminds you of fun and hot summer days before we all start back-to-school shopping and buying school supplies. While we can’t wait to see all of our friends back at school, enjoy the slower pace of the long summer days.

If cooking is your thing, and you want to make a fun, no-bake snack for you and your family or friends, look for a great recipe in Honeycomb Corner. Make delicious Under the Sea Graham Crackers complete with fish, seaweed, crabs, sand and bubbles.

Yum! As many of you enjoy our Cartooning section each month that always has fun things to draw, be sure to ask your parents to go to www.bruceblitz.com to get FREE cartooning sheets!

Your friend,

Thank You!

Have fun and keep reading!

Thank you to Kidz Buzz partners, sponsors and friends who believe in the community and support the value of education, literacy, creativity and fun.

The Hungry Bookworm Answer 1: 1/2 inch Solution: When books are placed in order (left to right), the front cover of the lower volume is touching the back cover of the next volume. Bruce only needs to eat through the two covers (front cover of Vol. 3 and back cover of Vol. 4). 1/4” + 1/4” = 1/2”.

Answer 2: 4 minutes Solution: Put everything into the same units... Rate is 1/8” per minute.

So, distance is 1/2” = 4/8”.

1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 = 1 minute + 1 minute + 1 minute + 1 minute = 4 minutes.

Get organized for back-to-school Even though the start of a new school year is still a few weeks away, August is a great time to get organized. · Clean out your child’s clothes closet and drawers.

Put items into three piles: Keep, Donate, and Dump.

Do the same with school supplies. This will give you a more accurate account of what you need and what you already have. · Organize! Group clothing by category so you know what you have: put jeans together, t-shirts together, etc. Do the same with school supplies. Use clear plastic shoe boxes to organize pencils, markers, glue sticks, and other school supplies. · Make a list of what needs to be replaced.

Keep an eye on the Sunday ad circulars for back-to-school sales.

When families & schools work together, our children are the winners!
