Dragons Are Real Activity Guide to Inspire

“Screen-free” Family Time

Did you know that Dragons are indeed real? If you have had a chance to

read my new children’s book by the same title, you already know that it

is possible!

So now that I have you thinking about Dragons, let’s start eating dragon,

playing with Dragons, creating with Dragons, reading with Dragons and

learning about Dragons!

Unit# 1: Enjoying Dragons as Friends

Did you know that Dragons love ice cream? This fact was discussed on

page 12 of my Dragons Are Real book.

They can smell something sweet from hundreds of feet away and sweets

is all that they think of all.day.long. SO, if your sweets, like ice cream,

ever go missing...you can be sure a real dragon is nearby. Let's create

our own ice cream treats and see if we can lure a sweet-craving dragon

in for a visit!

The Sweeter-the-Better Very Cherry Pecan Ice Cream

What You Need:

1 (10 oz.) jar red maraschino cherries,

2 C half and half

3 C whipping cream

1 C brown sugar, packed 1 T vanilla extract

3/4 C pecans, chopped

How to Make It:


Drain the cherries and reserve 1/3 cup of the juice.

Chop the cherries and place in a mixing bowl, set aside. Pour the reserved cherry

juice into a large mixing bowl. Add the half and half and whipping cream.

Dump the brown sugar into the mixture and stir until the sugar has completely

dissolved.

Fold in the vanilla extract.

Pour the mixture into the freezer canister of a 5 qt. ice cream maker. Freeze

according to the manufacturer's directions on your ice maker. Stir in the cherries

and pecans until well blended.

Allow the ice cream to set for four hours.

Old Fashion Delish French Vanilla

Because dragons are very old, they are oftentimes drawn to “old fashioned” way of

creating sweet treats!

What You Need:


1/2 C sugar 1/4 t salt

1 C of milk

egg yolks, beaten 1 T vanilla

C whipping cream, chilled

How to Make It:

Dump the sugar into a heavy duty saucepan. Sprinkle the salt over the sugar.

Pour the milk into the saucepan and stir to combine.

Add the egg yolks and stir until all the ingredients are combined together well.

Place the pan over medium heat and stirring constantly cook 3 minutes or until

bubbles begin to appear around the edges.

Remove the pan from the stove and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.

Stir in the vanilla.

Pour the ice cream into a refrigerator try and place in the freezer 45 minutes or

until mushy.

Place 2 bowls in the refrigerator to chill.

Add the whipping cream to the chilled bowl and beat with an electric mixer until

soft peaks begin to form.

Spoon the partially frozen ice cream mixture into the second chilled bowl. Beat

with the mixer on medium speed until smooth.

Fold the whipped cream into the mixture well.

Pour the ice cream evenly into 2 refrigerator trays and cover with wax paper.

Freeze at least 3 hours or until firm stirring the ice cream mixture about every 10

minutes for the first hour of freezing time. Makes 1 quart of ice cream

To make this ice cream in a crank style ice cream maker, follow the above

directions to where you add the vanilla. Add the vanilla and whipping cream

together. Pour 1/2 of the mixture into the freezer can of ice cream maker. Fill the

freezer tub 1/3 full of ice and then add the remaining ice cream. Crank until it


becomes too difficult to turn. Drain off water, replace the lid and allow the ice

cream to set for at least four hours.

Snow Festival Delight Snow Cream

Dragons are not often found in snow conditions, but when they are you

can whip up a batch of snow cream using nature’s own supplies!

What You Need:

8 cups of snow

1/2 cup of milk

1/2 cup of evaporated milk

1/2 cup of sugar

1 teaspoon of vanilla

http://www.jumpintoabook.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/snowcream3.jpg


How to Make it:

Mix milk, vanilla, and sugar until dissolved. Add snow, stir until consistency is

thick and creamy. Serve immediately. Might I suggest that it tastes great with

chocolate chips or little goodies (small candy) too.

Unit #2-Dragons Communicate in Secret Code

Ever heard of Futhark? It’s a Runic alphabet only know to the wisest

Dragons. In fact, Dragons use Futhark to write secret messages back and

forth.

Runes (Proto-Norse: ᚱᚢᚾ ᛟ (runo), Old Norse: rún) are the letters in a

set of related alphabets known as runic alphabets, which were used to

write various Germanic languages before the adoption of the Latin

alphabet and for specialised purposes thereafter. The Scandinavian

variants are also known as futhark or fuþark (derived from their first six

letters of the alphabet: F, U, Þ, A, R, and K); the Anglo-Saxon variant is

futhorc or fuþorc (due to sound changes undergone in Old English by

the names of those six letters).-Wikipedia

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runes


Practice creating your own Futhark that you can decode yourself with

family and friends!

Unit #3: Dragons Love Riddles

Did you see this fact on page 13? This goes hand-in-hand, or paw-in-

paw….or claw-in-claw…with the fact that Dragons love to laugh as

well. But riddles are much more to their fancy. If you ever meet a

Dragon, chances are he will test you with a riddle to see if it’s safe for

him to talk to you.


First, let’s make sure we understand what a “riddle” is. The definition of

a riddle is this: A question or statement intentionally phrased so as to

require ingenuity in ascertaining its answer or meaning.

So let’s practice our riddle telling and guessing!

What has two hands, but can’t tie a shoe or open a door?

Answer: A clock!

My life can be measured in hours,

I serve by being devoured.

Thin, I am quick

Fat, I am slow

Wind is my foe.

What am I?

Answer: A candle!

On my way to St. Ives I saw a man with 7 wives. Each wife had 7 sacks. Each sack

had 7 cats. Each cat had 7 kittens. Kitten, cats, sacks, wives. How many were

going to St. Ives?

Answer: Just one, me!! (I saw a man...).

While some months have just 30 days, others have 31 days. How many months

have 28 days?

Answer: All months have 28 days!

Almost everyone needs it, and yet almost nobody takes it, even when it is available.

What is it?


Answer: Advice!

(This Riddle Poem is by J.R.R. Tolkien.)

It cannot be seen, cannot be felt

Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt.

It lies behind stars and under hills,

And empty holes it fills.

It comes first and follows after,

Ends life, kills laughter.

Answer: Darkness

Unit #4: Dragons Love Bonfire Time


Yes Dragons breathe fire, but only when they need to and lighting a

delightful bonfire is one such occasion! So once the crackling fire is lit,

Dragons also love to “kick back” and enjoy some “around the fire”

activities. Here are a few favorites:

S’mores: What makes a dragon very happy? The combination of

campfire time AND a sweet treat!

Ingredients Needed:

Graham crackers (broken into squares)

Hershey's plain milk chocolate bars, broken into sizes to fit the graham

cracker squares

Large marshmallows

Equipment Needed:

8 wood sticks or long metal skewers (for roasting the marshmallows)

Bonfire, campfire or a fire pit

Directions:

Take one (1) large graham cracker and break it in half (one for top cracker and one

for bottom cracker). Notice graham crackers are scored across the middle, creating

two sub-crackers. Break apart at this part. Repeat with additional graham crackers.


Put a marshmallow on the stick and hold it over the fire until roasted (golden

brown on at least 2 sides). Toast marshmallows over a campfire only until golden

and they are just starting to get mushy. NOTE: Some people like to roast them for

a few minutes, then make them catch on fire, blow them out. Be sure and only do

this with adult supervision.

Take your toasted marshmallow (still on the stick), and lay it on the side of the

graham cracker with the chocolate. Now take the other half of the graham cracker

and cover the hot marshmallow, pressing down firmly enough to pull out the stick.

When the S'more is fully assembled, let it sit for a few seconds. The heat will

somewhat melt the chocolate and make for better "squishability." Don't eat it too

soon or you will burn your mouth! Now squish your S’more between your fingers

and eat it. Yum!

Story Stones: We wanted to explore the idea of Campfire Storytelling using

Story Stones as story prompts.

What you’ll need:

Little rocks. If you can’t find enough for this activity you can find them at

any craft store in the florist section.

Permanent Markers like Sharpies or Bic markers

We decorated rocks with symbols and designs. Each participant can chose a stone

and then either tell a story themselves, or challenge someone around the campfire

to tell the most entertaining story about that symbol. For an extra layer of fun,

campfire guest can decide whether the story is true or made up.


Campfire Hot Chocolate

Ingredients

2-1/2 ounces of unsweetened baking chocolate

1/2 cup cold water

1/8 tsp. salt

3/4 cup sugar

1 cup heavy cream

1 tsp. vanilla extract

A gallon of milk, or enough for all participants

Step 1: Making the Base

1. In a heavy-bottom saucepan over low campfire flame, melt the chocolate in

the water, stirring constantly until it is smooth.

2. Add the salt and sugar and continue to stir for 3 to 4 minutes.

3. Remove from fire. Let the chocolate mixture cool completely. This

chocolate base will keep in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Step 2: How to Make the Hot Chocolate


To make the hot chocolate you will need a gallon of milk and the refrigerated

chocolate cream.

1. In each cup place a large spoonful of the chocolate cream mixture.

2. Slowly heat the milk in a saucepan over campfire-safe cooking vessel,

medium-high heat, stirring constantly with a whisk so it won’t scald.

3. Pour hot milk into each cup and stir well. Sprinkle with freshly grated

cinnamon.

(This recipe comes from the book The Ultimate Guide to Charlie and the

Chocolate Factory by Valarie Budayr and Roscoe Welply and adapted for

outdoor/campfire cooking)

Unit #5: Dragons Love to Dance

But not just any dance, mind you. Dragons are a big animal so their

favorite dance (the one they can manage the best is the Cha-Cha-Cha!

Let’s brush up on your Cha-Cha-Cha skills so you can get down and

groove with your favorite Dragon.


The Cha Cha is characterized by its captivating rhythm – one, two, cha, cha, cha or

step, step, cha-cha-cha. The footwork is simple and mostly focuses on just shifting

weight from one foot to another.

It's danced to music written in 4/4 time and played at a tempo of 28-34 measures

per minute. Five steps are taken to four beats of music - 2 slow steps, 2 quick steps,

followed by one slow step. So the count would be: Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow,

slow, slow, quick, quick, slow…

Basic Steps

1. Step forward with your left foot

2. Right foot in place, weight shifts to it

3. Sidestep to the left with your left foot

4. Move your right foot to your left foot

5. Sidestep to the left with your left foot

6. Step backward & left with your right foot

7. Left foot in place, weight shifts to it

8. Step forward & right with your right foot


9. Move your left foot to your right foot

10. Sidestep to the right with your right foot

Unit #6 Dragon Age Gracefully and Wisely

Dragons are very old and how you can tell exactly how old they are is by

the amount of poetry they can recite. Very old dragons can recite poetry

for hours…but don’t fall asleep. An audience who falls asleep during a

recital is likely to end up as “toast.”

Here are some dragon-worthy poems to share:

Dragon Bread Recipe

2 1/4 teaspoons yeast

3 3/4 cups flour

3/4 cup warm water

2 eggs

1/2 cup oil

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup sugar

Mix together the yeast and warm water. Let it rest. In another bowl, mix eggs, oil,

salt, and sugar. Add flour. Add yeast and water mixture and mix until blended.

Knead the dough on a floured surface until its firm and smooth, then round it into a

bowl coated in a little oil. Turn the ball over once to coat both sides of dough with


oil. Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. Now place your

dough on a greased cookie sheet or use parchment paper and shape it into a dragon.

Make your dough into a long rectangle.

Make your dough into a long rectangle.

Take a little section off of the right hand end of the dough for the mouth, and

feet.

Pull the end of the right hand side of the dough to make a tail.

Attach the head.

Place a ball of dough under the head for the mouth. Feel free to add almond

slivers for the teeth.

Place the feet under the dragon body.

To decorate your dragon you can use dried fruit, almond slivers as spikes or

do as we have and use your scissors to make dragon scales.

Cut down the middle of the body first and then another row on down on each

side of the dragon’s body.

Add raisins or craisins for the eyes.

Some people cover and let their dragon bread rise again for about 30 minutes. We

do not since my kids like the shape of their dragon to remain the same. Bake at

350 degrees until done, about 25 minutes.

Using a hybrid of comic-book panels and text, Ursula Vernon introduces an irresistible set of

characters that will have readers laughing until smoke comes out of their noses!

The Rain Dragon Rescue (The Imaginary Veterinary) by Suzanne Selfors; Illustrated by

Dan Santat

Someone or something is stealing from the peaceful residents of Buttonville. But is the thief

from the real world…or the imaginary one? Ben and Pearl are about to find out. When they

report for duty at Dr. Woo’s, Mr. Tabby hands them a bucket and a shovel — for the collection

and proper disposal of dragon droppings — and directs the apprentices to the hospital’s roof.

Soon, they come face-to-snout with the dragon that lives there and find a pile of proof that he is

the thief.

Before Ben and Pearl can persuade the dragon to stop stealing, an emergency call comes in from

the Imaginary World. The rain dragon has been injured! But with Dr. Woo out of town and Mr.

Tabby busy with percolating pixies, time is running out.

Will Ben and Pearl finally get a chance to travel to the Imaginary World? Even if it means

breaking Dr. Woo’s rules? Even if it means they might never come back?

Funny, fast, inventive and high-energy storytelling!!!

The Hero and the Crown by Robin McKinley

This in an incredible read! In Robin McKinley’s Newbery Medal–winning novel, an outcast

princess must earn her birthright as a hero of the realm. Aerin is an outcast in her own father’s

court, daughter of the foreign woman who, it was rumored, was a witch, and enchanted the king

to marry her. But modern dragons, while formidable opponents fully capable of killing a human

being, are small and accounted vermin. There is no honor in killing dragons. The great dragons

are a tale out of ancient history.

Dragon Run by Patrick Matthews

Testing Day is supposed to be a day of celebration for Al Pilgrommor. Born into a wealthy

family, he expects to follow in his successful father’s footsteps. Of course, that all depends on

the rank number Al receives at the testing. The higher the rank he has tattooed onto his neck, the

better his life will be.

To his surprise and horror, Al is revealed to be rank zero, the lowest of the low. He’s now not

only an outcast – he’s also a danger to his entire family. So Al goes on the run, fleeing the brutal

Cullers, men who hunt down zeroes . . . and put them to death.

Cast out of his home, cut off from his friends, and armed with only a sword and his wits, Al is

reduced to just surviving. As he meets other outcasts, however, he begins to suspect that he is a

pawn in a larger game – and that he might have the power to tip the scales in a high-stakes

struggle between man and dragon.

Tyler and Lucinda have to spend summer vacation with their ancient uncle Gideon, a farmer.

They think they’re in for six weeks of cows, sheep, horses, and pigs. But when they arrive in

deserted Standard Valley, California, they discover that Ordinary Farm is, well, no ordinary

farm.

The bellowing in the barn comes not from a cow but from a dragon. The thundering herd in the

valley? Unicorns. Uncle Gideon’s sprawling farmhouse never looks the same twice. Plus, there’s

a flying monkey, a demon squirrel, and a barn-load of unlikely farmhands with strange accents

and even stranger powers.

Fluff Dragon by Platte F. Clark

Dubbed “deviously enjoyable” by Publishers Weekly, the second book in the hilarious Bad

Unicorn trilogy features killer unicorns, good dragons, rogue fire kittens, and a boy who just

might be a wizard.

After defeating a killer unicorn and saving a universe, all Max and his friends want to do is go

home. Instead, Max discovers that the Codex of Infinite Knowability has stopped working. He

can’t use it to get home until he reboots it. The problem is that in order to reboot the book, he’s

going to have to carry it into the heart of Rezormoor Dreadbringer’s Wizard’s Tower. Since

Dreadbringer has been hunting Max and the book across time and space, getting in may be easy,

but getting out will be another story.

The Girl, the Dragon, and the Wild Magic by Dave Luckett

Rhianna is failing out of magic school. She’s rather clumsy, even though she tries real hard.

After she causes her biggest mess ever, a wizard appears with some astonishing news –

Rhianna’s magic is, in fact, stronger than anyone else’s. She’s a Wild Talent, which means that

she possesses a pure form of magic that is full of power and energy. The hitch? Well, it’s very

hard to control the wild magic. And it tends to suck up all the other magic around it. So when a

dragon comes to town, it’s up to Rhianna to save the day . . . if she can.

The Last Dragon Slayer by Jasper Fforde

n the good old days, magic was indispensable. But now magic is fading: Drain cleaner is cheaper

than a spell, and magic carpets are used for pizza delivery. Fifteen-year-old Jennifer Strange runs

Kazam, an employment agency for magicians—but it’s hard to stay in business when magic is

drying up. And then the visions start, predicting the death of the world’s last dragon at the hands

of an unnamed Dragonslayer. If the visions are true, everything will change for Kazam—and for

Jennifer.

In the years after Fincayra disappears and Merlin has been sent wandering, a young lizard-like

creature, with the wings of a bat and the magical power to produce any smell it encounters, is

born into the new world of Avalon. The unlikely hero—Basil, he is called—cannot find a single

creature like itself nor a person who can tell him what he is. But it is clear that Basil is much

more than he seems when he stumbles into an encounter with the great Merlin, saving his child’s

life, then uncovers a secret plot by the evil Rhita Gawr. It’s a race against time and across

Avalon as Basil, with the help of the faithful wind sister Ailah, searches for the great wizard to

warn him.

The Last Dragon by Jane Yolen

Master storyteller Jane Yolen (Owl Moon, Sword of the Rightful King) and celebrated fantasy

artist Rebecca Guay (Swamp Thing, Magic: The Gathering) weave a textured and lyrical tale of

adventure, homelands, and heroism the hard way.

Two hundred years ago, humans drove the dragons from the islands of May. Now, the last of the

dragons rises to wreak havoc anew with only a healer’s daughter and a kite-flying-would-be hero

standing in its way.

A compelling coming of age fantasy with exquisite fully painted art!

Dragon’s Milk (The Dragon Chronicle) by Susan Fletcher

“You must go to the dragon. You must leave tonight.”

Before she even hears the words, Kaeldra already knows what she must do. She must search out

the mother dragon whose draclings have just hatched and somehow get some of her precious

milk. It’s the only way to save her foster-sister’s life. Kaeldra would rather not go. It’s much too

terrifying, much too dangerous. But Kaeldra knows that she’s the only one who can do it. For she

is the only one who can actually communicate with dragons.

Do you believe in dragons? Now, for the first time, the long-lost research of renowned

nineteenth century dragonologist Dr. Ernest Drake is presented in all its eccentric glory, happily

bridging the gap between dragon legend and fact. The meticulous Dr. Drake assigns Latin names

to various dragon species, ruminates on why dragons are able to speak, speculates on how they

could fly, and explains the true purpose of their notorious hoarding habits. Here are just a few of

The Ultimate Guide to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

It all started as an idea from a note by Willy Wonka inside an old book at the yard

sale.

The result was a labor of love, and my first-ever enhanced digital e-book inspired

by the classic tale of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory; The Ultimate Guide to

It’s been several years since my Ultimate Guide to Charlie and The Chocolate

Factory enhanced digital e-Book hit the virtual shelves of the iTunes

iBookstore and what fun adventure it’s been!

What We Encountered Along The Way thanks to Charlie:

We won our own golden tickets by sheer wit.

We entered into the jungle to learn how chocolate and gum were made and

even got to make some of our very own.

We met Oompa Loompas and even had a wardrobe exchange. We’ve never

truly been right since then as they have very short legs.

We learned the true secrets of gobstoppers. We’d tell you but our mouths are

full.

Willy Wonka’s factory is a masterwork of mazes. We had to utilize our skill

at them to work our way through this enchanting chocolate factory,

including but not limited to the ever famous scissor maze where we walked

clean through a piece of paper. Of course we haven’t kept that info to

ourselves but have happily shared it with all of you

What many teachers and parents don’t realized about the enhanced digital e-book

The Ultimate Guide to Charlie and The Chocolate Factory is that is contains

many book extensions related to the classic tale by Roald Dahl; many of which






http://www.audreypress.com/charlie_details.html


meet the criteria for common core. It’s basically a collection of inventive and

creative book extensions inspired by the classic tale, with the benefit of Common

Core activities:

“Charlie” includes these Common Core Standards:

Math Skills

Social Sciences

Geography

Basic geometry

Biology

Mazes

Measuring

Hand/Eye Co-ordination

Other skills your young reader will be exposed to is basic cooking, map-reading,

linear thinking and conservation.

Although The Ultimate Guide to Charlie is a beautifully illustrated interactive e-

book, the entertainment comes from doing the crafts, recipes, and games once the

book is shut. It’s good old fun-21st century style. We loved creating a balance

between the virtual world and the actual world. Magic comes from our inspirations

and imagination. The Ultimate Guide to Charlie will lend itself to hours of fun

again and again. Homeschooling families have also found this enhanced digital e-

book helpful in their studies and this creativity-packed adventure is also available
