Out Like a Lamb

Yesterday I posted our lion that Hailey made since March came in like a lion.  Since we can only assume that March will be going out like a lamb, Hailey made a lamb.

You’ll need a black oval for the face (I used chalk to draw a mouth), 2 small ovals for ears, 2 google eyes, and 1 pink triangle for a nose.  You’ll also need a paper plate, cotton and glue.

Hailey put the face of her lamb together.

Then she glued the face onto the paper plate.

Next she added some cotton.

The finished lamb.

In Like a Lion?

Our theme this week is weather in March.  I explained to Hailey that the weather in March can be referred to as a lion or a lamb and we talked about examples of each kind of weather.  We decided that we were definitely in the middle of some lion like weather and made a lion for our craft.

You’ll need a paper plate and some tissue paper or construction paper.  I didn’t have any brown tissue paper, so that is construction paper but the yellow and orange are tissue paper.  Hailey started out making a pattern around her plate (this will be the mane).

Then she decided she just wanted to add a bunch of pieces.

You’ll need these pieces for the lion’s face- a yellow diamond for the head, 2 yellow circles for ears, an orange triangle for the nose, black rectangles for whiskers and wiggle eyes.

Letter of the Week- Letter L

Hailey glued some sequence onto the Letter L template.

For Hailey’s alphabet book she made a Ladybug.  She cut out a big red circle for the body, added some spots, a head, eyes and antenna.  Then she added some green paint for grass.

Ll is for Ladybug.

Letter of the Week- Letter L

Sorry that I have disappeared for the last week- we have been really busy! We are in the midst of selling our house and that can be a pretty time consuming process. I am going to try to post more regularly- but I just can’t promise that I will be able to.

Our letter of the week this week is the letter L.  We made a Letter L with Lines on it.

Here’s what you’ll need:  letter L on a piece of construction paper, another piece of construction paper, paint and Q-Tips.

Paint some lines on your letter L.  I showed Hailey how to make a line and then she took over.  She did pretty well making some lines and then asked me to help her finish.

Here is our finished Lined Letter L.
