~Groundhog Day~
Happy Groundhog Day 2017! Lydia and I did a lot of fun groundhog day activities with the kids. A lot of these are from previous years. As always, I'll highlight links to the templates/printables in red throughout the post.
Connor and Shaila love this video. It's from Punxtawney Phil's perspective and explains what Groundhog Day is.
First we did a Happy Groundhog Day coloring page.
Brandan absolutely LOVES preschool. He did an awesome job on this Groundhog Shadow Matching Game. There is a page with nine shadows on it, and I cut out the corresponding groundhogs for Brandan to match.
Next I cut out some blue rectangles out of construction paper and had them paste some green construction paper on top of that. Then the kids cut the top of the green construction paper into little strips so that it looked like grass. They colored this groundhog template and pasted it and cotton balls onto the paper. Very simple, but they had a lot of fun with it!
Brandan's favorite craft was our toilet paper roll groundhog. All you need for this craft is this template and a gluestick or some tape.
Phil did see his shadow, so we settled in for our 'six more weeks of winter' by finishing off with an Addition and Subtraction Color By Number and some hot chocolate!
