This week's craft was the shapes mouse that was made in the book Mouse Shapes by Ellen Stoll Walsh.  The children colored the cardstock cutout shapes and then glued them together to make the mouse.

Literacy Extensions:
- Practice shape recognition by having your child find different shapes wherever you are at.
- Have your child practice drawing shapes.  Don't worry if they are not perfect.  It is the practice that is important.
