Mary Had a Little Lamb (Sheep) Sing-Along Story Time: June 11-12, 2018

Books:
Farmer Brown Shears His Sheep by Teri Sloat *
Mary Had a Little Lamb by Maryann Hoberman *
Six Sandy Sheep by Judith Ross Enderle
Where Is the Green Sheep? by Mem Fox *

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.
