Family Central

We had so much fun welcoming everyone to our Playtime by Eimmie headquarters for our official Eimmie Launch Party. We spent the day playing with dolls and stuffed animals, having fun giveaways, and of course eating some unicorn cake.

Eimmie and her friend learned about ancient Egypt today in school. As soon as they got home they knew where they were heading on their next imagination adventure! The girls imagined themselves to Cairo, Egypt’s capital, first. Their teacher had talked about the Egyptian Museum which was in the heart of the city.

Eimmie loves bedtime reading. Her Mom and Dad read her stories all the time and Eimmie also likes to read to herself now that she’s learning. Last night she read all about vacation and travel and had dreams of airplanes, beaches, and oceans! Eimmie’s Aunt loves to travel and she gave Eimmie books and magazines about all the glamorous and fun places she wants to go. Eimmie read about the beaches of Bali. She imagined herself swimming in the turquoise water while her Aunt paddled by on a surfboard. The next morning Eimmie asked her Mom to help her find Bali on a map and learned the island is part of Indonesia, north of Australia. Eimmie also read about people backpacking in the Swiss Alps. She imagined the feel of backpack straps on her shoulders as she climbed a mountain. Eimmie looked at pictures of Paris, she looked at pictures of France. Eimmie thought to herself, “I will have to tell Auntie that my friend and I had an imagination adventure in Paris last week!” Next, she read about safari adventures where you can watch lions, giraffes, rhinos and more. Eimmie flipped through the last magazine her Aunt had given her. It had pictures of temples in Thailand and Eimmie began to imagine herself there….zzzzz…then Eimmie was asleep for the night. What books do you read to yourself, or with your family, at bedtime? Share with #EimmieAdventures on our Facebook page to win Eimmie T-shirts and prizes!

Eimmie had an adventure today with her Aunt at the science museum. Eimmie loves taking day trips with her Aunt: they call them mini travel adventures. The science museum in the city had so many different exhibits to look at. Eimmie had a hard time choosing! There were natural history exhibits that had skeletons of dinosaurs, blue whales and tons of other animals. Eimmie felt tiny when she stood under the skeleton of a prehistoric (this is museum language for really old) shark that was the size of a school bus! Auntie said she was glad the giant shark wasn’t around anymore.   Astronomy There were displays about the stars and planets and even a planetarium. The planetarium was a small theater where you could sit in chairs and watch the stars projected onto the ceiling. The stars moved through their orbits before Eimmie’s eyes and a Professor talked to the audience throughout the show. They got to see star constellations and hear the myths about each. Did you know there are two arrangements of stars that look like old-fashioned spoons? These were the stars Eimmie’s Aunt used to look for when she was camping as a little girl. The constellations are called the Big Dipper and Little Dipper and Eimmie thinks she can find them again in the night sky. All she has to do is find the super bright North Star and play an imaginary game of connect the dots to line up all the stars in the Little Dipper constellation–it really does look like a spoon with a really long handle! Crystals The last exhibit they had time to look at had so many crystals, some larger than Eimmie! The display explained the story of how crystals and gems form over thousands of years. Eimmie learned that crystals are a special kind of solid material whose molecules fit together in a repeating pattern. These patterns cause the material to form all sorts of unique shapes. Crystals often form after molten (or really hot liquid) rock begins to cool down. This is how many gemstones, like diamonds, rubies, and emeralds, form. Eimmie and her Aunt found so many cool crystals in the display cases to look at. They started imagining stories about the most unique ones and were startled when a guard told them the museum was about to close. Keep in touch!

Eimmie loves to go on imagination adventures! Today she and her friend imagined they were in London, England. They stopped by to see Big Ben (and for Eimmie to take an imagination snapshot for you!) and visited Parliment while they were in town.

Almost 150 people joined the Club Eimmie Team earlier this month in Cleveland for our first casting call. A great group of girls, from 4 -12 years old, attended with their families. They brought a spirit of adventure and fun to the photo shoot! The group had fun! They: Colored at the art station Rocked the selfie station with tons of fun props like photo booth mustaches, hats, and glasses Danced to tunes off and on Struck pose after pose with their rock star guitars and microphones at the glam photo station Played with Eimmie, her furniture and accessories while professional photographers and videographers snapped and filmed away The girls’ favorite companion (after Eimmie of course!) was the unicorn. They all had to give him a big hug and play with his rainbow tail! Their favorite activities in the photo shoots were brushing out Eimmie’s hair and dressing her in pajamas. Thank you to all our brand ambassadors for their great work at the first Club Eimmie casting call. A big shout out to all the parents, siblings, aunts, and grandparents who joined us as well! Stay tuned for more pictures from the event and to learn more about adventures delivered monthly by Club Eimmie. The Club Eimmie Team would love to hear from you: share your kiddo’s favorite school adventure with #EimmieAdventures on our Facebook page for fun prizes!
