Once Upon A Time......

Today was National Fairy Tale Day! I love celebrating quirky holidays and today was so fun. We began the day by reading some of our favorite fairy tales including Cinderella and Golidlocks and the Three Bears.
 
Then the boys watched a couple ebooks on the iPad including: Cinderella, The Three Little Pigs, and Goldilocks. I then had them color some coloring pages that corresponded with each story.
 
We then each took turns building houses with blocks (just like the 3 little pigs).......
 
 
and then blowing the house down!!!! They LOVED this game.
 
We also made paper crowns
 
Watched Super Why (which is completely literature based).
 
And made stick puppets. The boys loved putting on a puppet show. I had to demonstrate the concept first though, but they got the hang of it.
 


We had a magical day and.....lived happily ever after!
