Craft: Standing Sheep
Children colored a sheep body that was folded in half to stand and then glued on the sheep's head. They could then glue on multi-colored pieces of yarn to give the sheep wool.
Literacy Extensions:
- See if there is a working sheep farm nearby to visit that will allow your child to interact with the sheep.
- Farmer Brown Shears His Sheep gives the basic steps of turning sheep's wool into sweaters by knitting. Maybe try some simple finger knitting or paper weaving with your child.
