Instructions:
Decide first what family you would like to represent from your favorite oldie but goodie. Our family will be the Cleavers from Leave It To Beaver. Our who street will be something different from the Partridge Family to Ozzie and Harriet. We will play music from the theme of who we represent. The ones who stay at home will decorate the outside of their home to represent the family they are portraying and one neighbor is even painting his old Vw Bus to look like the Partridge Family bus!

Other information to consider:
Make sure that each individual is the character they really wish to be as they will make the whole experience fun and authentic. If you can, make this an neighborhood project so it can be remembered for years and a great bond for all neighbors.
