with an impromptu change to storytime today, we celebrated the overnight snowstorm and the ever accumulating snow. We read The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats, about Peter and his adventures in the snow. Ladybug Girl and the Big Snow by Jacky Davis tells about Ladybug Girl and Bingo and the challenges and fun they have playing outside in winter. Finally, Katy and the Big Snow by Virginia Lee Burton was a huge hit with children paying great attention to the tiny details in the illustrations. Katy saved the day that winter in Geopolis when there was so much snow!
For our craft, we bedazzled die-cut snowflakes using crayons and stick-on jewels and rhinestones. A length of yarn made the snowflake a hanger for some and a necklace for others. One young patron is sending her snowflake to Texas, where they don't have any snow!
