We had a monstrous good time today!

BOOKS:

 

Wilfred

story and illustrations by Ryan Higgins

Wilfred is humongous and hairy, and he'll do just about anything for a friend. But when some greedy townspeople discover just how generous he is, they hatch a not-so-nice plan. A quirky and moving story about the power of true friendship. The kids were mesmerized.

Monster, Be Good!

story by Blue Apple Books

illustrations by Natalie Marshall

A bright, bold, and boisterous book featuring all kinds of monster behavior and what kids can do about it. Simple and fun.

ACTIVITY:

We "created" a monster on the white board by me drawing, to the kids' specifications, what body parts s/he should have, how many, what sizes, and what colors. This continued until we were satisfied with the finished product.

We also played Monster Match with these reproducible cards that the kids got to take home after.

If you have children between the ages of 4 and 6, please join us next Tuesday. There is no charge, and registration is not required, but tickets will be given out starting at 1:30. The program is limited to 18 children, ages 4-6.
