Little Bunny Foo Foo

One of Hailey’s favorite songs is Little Bunny Foo Foo.  She asks all of the time to hear “Foo Foo.”  (The lyrics are here if you don’t know the song.)  So when I saw a fun wand to make to go along with the song over at No Time for Flashcards I had to try it out with Hailey.

Here’s what you’ll need: card stock (I used an old cereal box because the thickness is perfect), glue, markers, star shape, straw, scissors, and glitter.

Trace two star shapes onto the inside of the cereal box.

Hailey enjoyed decorating her stars with markers.

After your child finishes coloring, add some glitter to the stars.  Hailey really loved this part.

After it is completely dry- cut out the stars.  Then glue them onto the straw.

Hailey loves using her wand when we sing Little Bunny Foo Foo.

Duck Pond

The theme I am using with Hailey right now is songs. One of her favorite songs is Five Little Ducks. So we have done a couple of activities about ducks. The other day we made Five Little Duck pieces for our felt board and then we did some duck stamping. Our last project in sticking with the duck theme was to make a duck pond.

Here’s what you’ll need: green, blue, yellow and orange construction paper, glue, scissors and a black marker.

Leave the green construction paper a full piece of paper. Cut the blue construction paper to look like a body of water. The cut 4 small dome shapes and 4 small circles from the yellow paper. Cut 4 very small triangles from the orange paper . For older children I would let them do the cutting but since this was a toddler project I did all of the cutting.

Glue the blue onto the green paper. Then glue the shapes together to create the ducks. After the duck pond has dried, add a black dot for the eyes on the ducks.

The finished duck pond.
