We've read the entire series. In fact, most of us have read the entire series more than once. And while we've never done an official book club meeting for these books, here are some activities that we've enjoyed right along with Percy and Annabeth.
When the movie (which we did NOT love) came out, we spent all morning making our own Camp Half Blood shirts and creating beads that would mark special things about us or our lives just like the camp necklaces do. Each one picked the part of Greek mythology they most related to in decorating their shirt. Great fun.
Another time we created and decorated swords and then attacked a box-drawn version of Medusa.
Here is our version of Aegis, Thalia's shield (an exact replica of Zeuss' shield, of course).
And here's Thalia's Pine Tree in cake form--complete with dragon and Golden Fleece.
