|Rabbits, cats, turkeys, bears, and mice!|
Today, we started a new paper bag puppet craft to go along with the holidays---Rudolph!!! Lessons learned----kids can't cut out complicated antlers, so do this in advance. Another lesson---a fire drill in the middle of the craft hinders completion of the craft in one session. For a complete step-by-step for this project, click HERE

For this activity, I went back to one of my favorite apps on the iPad---Pictello. They have now upgraded this so that pdfs can be emailed---I emailed this to the teacher of these kids so they can make more reindeer! (see Joint Action Routine) Repetition is good!
Below are some screenshots from Pictello. Kids love it because they hear the 'text to speech', and can turn the pages on the iPad. They chose different colored antlers, by the way, rather than the red ones pictured. I thought that was cute!
