For my daughter’s 13th birthday several years ago, we celebrated by gathering her friends for a morning brunch and watching the Anne of Green Gables Movie. Let me tell you that standing in the background while 10 tween/teen girls watched this story was delightful. For them, it was an interactive experience as they discussed, laughed, sighed, groaned, predicted, argued, and celebrated. So sweet and entertaining!
I included my complete hosting menu as a part of our Anne of Green Gables Literature Kit. Enjoy some images from that day!
“It has always seemed to me, ever since early childhood, amid all the commonplaces of life, I was very near to a kingdom of ideal beauty. Between it and me hung only a thin veil. I could never draw it quite aside, but sometimes a wind fluttered it and I caught a glimpse of the enchanting realms beyond-only a glimpse-but those glimpses have always made life worthwhile.” ~Anne Shirley
