Nature Storytime

For today's nature storytime, we read these three books. The Great Big Green by Peggy Gifford is

full of riddles and artwork all about our Earth. There Is a Bird Your Head by Mo Willems is another funny Elephant and Piggie book. My favorite to read was Henry Hikes to Fitchburg by D.B. Johnson. Henry hikes, his friend raises money to take the train, and the question is this: Who has the better trip? 

Next we used three trays full of flowers, ferns, leaves, and stems to make a natural sun catcher. Sticky contact paper was attached to the cut out center of a paper plate, and natural things were stuck to it. Some used petals and pieces to make a scene, others just stuck on what they liked. All were so different and so beautiful when held up to the window!
