Thank you Dolly. You will be greatly missed by most of us. Thank you for all that you have done for our children. You are the legend. You are the legacy. Dolly Parton

I am creating activites that help your children understand that there is so much more to a book than just reading it.

By creating challenges to get them to think in so many different ways!

You can access my fun and free activites on my website at www.authortjtaylor.com

What if a fish decided to open a bakery?

What would it bake?
Who would deliver the treats?
And what would an underwater bakery even look like?

Welcome to Twizzlethink Tuesday! Part of the Wonderweek Series by Author TJ Taylor.

Twizzlethink means:

To let your imagination twist, wiggle, wonder, and think in unexpected ways.

Today, we’re taking one silly little “What if?” And seeing where our imagination takes us.

Because sometimes the best ideas begin with a question that makes absolutely no sense. 😂

Now it’s YOUR turn!

What if your pet could talk?
What if your shoes could fly?
What if the moon came down for dinner?

Don’t worry about making sense.

Just follow the thought and see where it takes you! 🎉✨🪄

TWIZZLETHINK TUESDAY
Twist it. Wiggle it. Wonder about it.

This is apart of Wonderweek, a reoccurring journey through imagination, creativity, reading, music, movement, and playful thinking.

Happy Twizzlethink Tuesday, Adventurers!

This is part of my new series, TJ's Wonderweek, and I am so excited for you to participate and to see the incredible things you come up with!

My wonderfully fun imagination has come up with an entire dictionary for the World of Wompaloon, and twizzlethink was my first one! I am so happy to share this with you. I like to call my fun and fabulous new words: Wonderwords.

Twizzlethink is a word straight out of my World of Wompaloon. You have seen a small taste with HoneyBee Havyn & Bella the Bee: The Wompaloon King, but I will be sharing much more before the book, The World of Wompaloon is published to get you all ready!

To twizzlethink is to let your imagination wiggle, wonder, and think in unexpected ways.

Keep an eye on my YouTube channel, and be sure to subscribe. The fun and challenges will only get more creative.

Open a Book. Take a Ride.

Welcome to Manifundo Monday!

What if something ordinary could become something completely different?

That’s your challenge today!!

Find something ordinary around your house……a spoon, a sock, a cardboard box…..and use your imagination to turn it into something unexpected.

A spoon can become a magic wand.
A sock can become a silly puppet.
A box can become a rocket ship.

There are no wrong answers. There are no rules about what you have to create. Just use your imagination and Manifundo it!!

MANIFUNDO (verb): to take something ordinary and use your imagination to make it something unexpected, creative, or fun.

What did YOU turn into something new?

Tell me in the comments.

Welcome to TJ’s Wonderweek, where every day holds something more to explore.

Read. Dream. Explore.

✨📚ADVENTURE IS COMING TO FRONTIER DAYS! 🎟📚

I'm packing up the books, crafts, activity sheets, T-shirts, and a whole lot of imagination because I'll be at Frontier Days, September 11th-13th!! 🥳

I'll have:

📚Children's Books
🎨 Kids' crafts and activities
🖍 Activity sheets
🎽Adventure & bookish T-shirts
✨ And, of course, plenty of imagination!

Because I don't believe kids need an expensive screen to have an adventure.

Sometimes all they need is a book, a little creativity, and someone willing to say......

"Come on. Let's see where this will take us." 🎀

So mark your calendar, bring the kids, and come say hi!

I'll see you at Frontier Days! 📖✨

Discover new worlds.
Ask ridiculous questions. 🤣
Get lost in adventure.
Let your imagination do the traveling.

You can go back as many times as you want.

So grab a book, turn the page, and let's see where it takes you.
