Craft: Bell
This was a very simple craft to make. A small paper plate was cut in half. I then made a hole using a hole punch right on the straight edge in the center. (It should look like half a hole punch.) The children then colored the bottom side of the plate. A jingle bell was tied onto a piece of curling ribbon. The curling ribbon was laid into the hole punch and the plate was glued into a cone shape. A piece of tape was usually needed to make sure the plate would stay glued. These turned out very cute. I really liked how a lot of the kids wore their bells like bracelets.
Literacy Extensions:
- Go over the different animal sounds with your child as in Polar Bear, Polar Bear and What the Baby Hears.
- Discuss how different places sound differently (i.e. country and city in Moo in the Morning)
