Have you ever read The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle and have wanted to eat everything insight like the hungry caterpillar?
Try creating a craft like this one based off of The Very Hungry Caterpillar, maybe you can read the book like they are instructions while the kids help put together the caterpillar or put the fruit in the cups?
Meanwhile you should come by the library and check out our copy of the book.

Bubble Wrap Craft!
Oh, the many crafts that can be made with bubble wrap!
Make a sheep like the one in the picture, or make another animal of your choice. Here is the link for instructions: http://www.craftymorning.com/bubble-wrap-sheep-craft-kids/. I think the sheep in the picture looks like it could be from Shaun the Sheep, enjoy!

Puffy Paint: Snow Edition!
Today's craft is... Puffy paint! Only this is a special kind of puffy paint, it involves iridescent glitter to give it a real snow feel!
Here is the link with detailed instructions: http://www.growingajeweledrose.com/2013/11/shivery-snow-paint-recipe.html. The creator of this blog used peppermint extract, which is entirely optional. I believe you have to use a more sturdy paper type like cardboard or watercolor paper. Or any paper that will not be ruined by moisture.
Have fun and see you next week!
