Pajamas & Coats Story Time: March 28-29, 2016

Books:
Here Comes Winter by Janet Craig
Joseph Had a Little Overcoat by Simms Taback *
Llama Llama Red Pajama by Anna Dewdney *
Piggies in Pajamas by Michelle Meadows
Ruth's Pink Pajamas by Julie Gassman *
Ruthie's Big Old Coat by Julie Lacome

Craft: Llama Llama in Bed
This week's craft is pictured above.  The bed was made by folding a long half sheet of paper leaving about 1-1/2" inches at the top uncovered and then gluing the sides to make into a pouch.  The kids then colored a llama cutout and then stuck it into the bed pouch.

Literacy Extensions:
- After reading Ruth's Pink Pajamas, ask your child to come up with reasons why pajamas would not be appropriate attire for various places (i.e. school, library, store, etc.)
- After reading Joseph Had a Little Overcoat, talk about how various items of clothes could be made into a new item of clothes.
