Game/Activity: Ok, so the hula hoop didn’t originate in Hawaii, but the “hula” dance sure did!  For this silly exercise in music and movement, dig out your old hula hoop (or snap one up on the cheap at a yard sale), and try to dance the hula while hula-hooping.  Impossible?  You won’t know until you try!

Snack: Keep your snack simple.  Buy some canned, sliced pineapple, and savor the flavors of island life!

Craft: Make a flowered, paper lei.  The Family Fun site has a great tutorial using cupcake liners!

I hope you enjoyed this idea for how you can recreate story time at home!  Check back in a few days for more fun, travel-themed ideas focusing on a new area of the world!
