Movies, Toys, and Pancakes!


Hugo
Do you like movies? Many people do. There are so many good movies that now there is a competition to find the best movies each year. The competition is called the Oscars. The Oscars have been around for 84 years! This weekend was the Oscar awards for 2012. One very special movie won five awards. The move is Hugo. Hugo is based on a great book called The Invention of Hugo Caberet. The book has really great pictures drawn with a pencil. It is great that a movie made from a book won so many Oscars!

Toy Fair
Have you ever wondered where stores find the great toys that they put on their shelves? Well, some stores go to the Toy Fair each year to see all of the new toys that have been created. Then, they can choose which toys they want to have in their store. Last week was the Toy Fair for 2012. There were more than 1,000 companies showing their toys. There were more than 10,000 visitors looking at the toys. Most of these visitors own or work at a store. The most popular toys this year had an online computer game that went with the toy. That sounds fun!

Free Pancakes
Get ready to eat some pancakes! Tuesday is National Pancake Day. This is a whole day just to celebrate pancakes. One restaurant has a very special deal on National Pancake day. The International House of Pancakes gives free pancakes to all customers on this day! Pancakes can be topped with your favored toppings: syrup, butter, fruit, or whipped cream. Yum! Yum!
