Jackalope's Flat Stanley goes to the Tulip Festival

Hello again 2nd grade!

Jackalope's Flat Stanley got to go and visit the Tulip Festival in Pella, Iowa. He had a lot of fun. He got to watch a parade with lots of bands, Dutch costumes, and floats. He also got to eat a funnel cake and a snowcone. We went to the Dutch bakery and got some yummy Dutch treats like dutch letters, puff pillows, and almond patties :) He also bought a little Dutch souvenir to take home to Castlewood! Flat Stanley is excited to go home and should be there in a couple of days.


The only tulips we could find were dead :( All the other tulips were just stems.


Since we couldn't find any live tulips, we bought some made of wood.


Flat Stanley with his Dutch Letter from the bakery! This bakery is very popular and we had to wait in line for almost an hour, but it was worth it!

  1. Flat Stanley probably loved eating from that bakery! Too bad most of the tulips were dead but the wooden ones will bloom forever!
    Love,
    Jackalope and the Class of 2022
