ELECTION and ELECTION MAP

Today our house is full of excitement. Jon, Tom and I went to vote this morning. This was Jon's first time. He doesn't show much emotion but I do believe he was excited to be voting. I actually jumped out of bed ready to go....that's amazing because I really wasn't looking forward to this. Eddie, on the other hand, doesn't want to vote but he will.
I have been doing election stuff with Tom today. He/we will all be doing the Electoral College Map (BELOW). Tom has one for a lapbook and we will be doing a large wall map. For each state won, we will stick a small picture of the winner ... http://vintageholidaycrafts.com/category/paper-dolls/ .... If you go to this website you can print out election "buttons" AND McCain/Obama paper dolls. I minimized the paper dolls to use for the winners on the map. I will have to post pictures tomorrow. We also got the election lapbook booklets from http://www.homeschoolshare.com/ .
This is going to be a long day. ;0)
WE ARE READY!

Thanks for posting a link to my Vintage Holiday Crafts blog. It was delightful to see how you used the clip art and paper dolls. I'm so glad you found it useful!
