Writer's Workshop - Pajamas

Write a blog post inspired by the word:

pajamas

Last year,

my cousin started a new Christmas tradition.

She has three sons,

her oldest is the same age as Ethan.

We have another cousin

with a son the same age.

Every Christmas,

we try to get the boys together.

So, she had a fantastic idea.

Get the boys matching pajamas.

The boys had a blast in their PJs.

We're not home this Christmas,
but she hasn't let that stop
the second annual
pajama party.
She sent Ethan a pair.
I'm going to let him open it on
Christmas Eve.

Meanwhile,
everytime I think of pajamas,
I think of Sandra Boyton's book
Pajama Time.
What I like even better
was hearing it as a song.

And since I've now got it stuck in my head,
I'm going to share it with you...

Pajama Time by Sandra Boynton

The moon is up, 

It’s getting late. 

Let’s get ready to celebrate.

It’s Pajama Time!

Pull on the bottoms. 

Put on the top.

 Get yourself set to pajama-dee-bop-- 

It’s Pajama Time!

Now, some are old and some are new. 

Some are red and some are blue. 

Some are fuzzy. Some are not.

 But we can all pajammy in whatever we’ve got.

 It’s Pajama Time! 

Ooooo yes, it’s Pajama Time!

Some are pink and some are green.

 Some are the ugliest you’ve ever seen.

 They might be stripey,

or polka dot.

 But we can all pajammy in whatever we’ve got. 

It’s Pajama time!

Pajammy to the left. 

Pajammy to the right. 

(Jamma jamma jamma jamma P! J!) 

Everybody’s wearing them for dancing tonight.

 (Jamma jamma jamma jamma P! J!)

Now all around the room in one big line, 

wearing our pajamas and looking so fine.

It’s Pajama Time! 

Hop into bed.

Turn off the light.

 You can have a party in your dreams tonight. 

IT’S PAJAMA TIME!

(Hush, Hush.)

(Shhhhhhhh.)

GOOD NIGHT 

SLEEP TIGHT.
