SOME OF OUR FAVS

Paw Patrol Puppet

The Hungry Caterpillar

My kids love that story so we made the caterpillar from the story.

I attached a bag onto the back so when the kids put the food into the mouth, they would see it go into the caterpillar's stomach.

Paper Plate Cookie Monster

Peppa Pig Puppets

Paw Patrol Kite

"Dand-E- Lion"

My kiddos loved this one!!

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.

Groundhog Day and Favourite TV Shows

 Welcome

Another fun week learning about Groundhog Day, shadows and creating some of our favourite TV characters.

So, here's what we did last week.

Peppa Pig

We used a red paper plate for the body and I printed off Peppa's head to add to the top.

Peppa Pig Scene

Elmo

We glued squares of red cardstock onto our paper and added the features.  

Good fine motor practice picking up all the little squares.

Paw Patrol

I printed off the head and paws and we glued them onto a cone to decorate.

Groundhog Day

Here in Canada, we celebrate Groundhog Day on Feb. 2.

We coloured a puppet and gave him a shadow.

We had fun making shadows and I'm happy to say that the groundhog predicts an early Spring!

Favourite Characters

 Hello.

So glad you could drop in to see what we were up to last week.

Taking a break from our 'winter theme' as the kids wanted to do some crafts showing their favourite characters they love.

So here's what we did last week.

Cookie Monster

I had some black paper plates on hand so I folded it in half and we glued the blue construction paper on the top half.  I covered the tubes with some blue and the kids glued on the eyes.

The cookies were a lesson on learning colours as they glued them all on.

Peppa Pig

The kids love watching this fun little show on TV about Peppa and her brother George.

I printed them out, we decorated them and had a puppet show.

Teletubbies

A new to the kids show they are loving.

We decided to make a simple little match game making learning fun!

Groundhogs

February 2nd was Groundhog Day.

Here were we live, the groundhog predicted an early Spring (fingers crossed although I am skeptical about that prediction lol).  

I printed off this cute little guy and after we coloured and decorated him, we glued him to a paper bag we had stuffed with newspaper.  I think the kids had more fun crunching up the newspaper then anything!!  We did a shadow show using them...so fun.

Paw Patrol

One of the most popular kids shows going.

I simply printed off pictures of the characters and we glued them onto a banner.

Great fine motor practice for my littlest ones, picking up the little pieces and gluing them on.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.

Off to prep for our Valentine creates!

Books and Cartoon Characters cont. (week 2)

Hello and Welcome!

Last week was such a big hit with my little ones.  We did book and cartoon characters as our theme.  They asked to do more, so I planned this week to do more!

I love seeing the excitement in their eyes.  

So here's what we did this week.

Placemats

The kids wanted to make a placemat for home, so I printed off some pictures and we coloured and glued it all together....I added their names (covered) and then laminated them.  

The kids loved them.

My little ones love Dora the Explorer, so we made a match game to play.

Another huge favourite show is Paw Patrol so we made a door hanger with their names on it.

Princess Theme

Thursday and Friday was a Princess theme. 

Since I have 4 little girls right now, they SO wanted to make princess puppets and a castle so that's what we did.

I printed off a Prince and Princess and we made them into puppets.

I printed this off and we coloured it first, then glued it inside of our decorated castles.  The piece for the back was cut larger then the front, so it could bend and make room for them to play inside with the puppets. 

We coloured the jewels above, I cut them out and then the girls glued them onto the matching spot.  It was a great lesson on learning shapes too!

Friday was Princess Day

We all got dressed up as princesses and had such a great time.

These are the crowns we made, they pretty much wore them all day too!

We played Princess Bingo

 ....and what's a Princess day without some decorated bracelets to wear, a glow in the dark wand, a unicorn and some Princess tattoos.  Such fun we had.

This is the princess food we ate:

 a cheese crown

Princess Popcorn...I tinted the butter with food colouring

and pink yogurt dipped breadstick that I froze a bit.

Well that's all for now.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
