Books:
Bear Stays Up for Christmas by Karma Wilson *
The 12 Days of Christmas by Jane Cabrera
I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas by Jon Rox *
Minerva Louise on Christmas Eve by Janet Morgan Stoeke *
Craft: Hippo with Santa Hat
The children colored hippo pieces (circle body, head, two feet) and a Santa hat before gluing them all together.
Literacy Extensions:
- After listening to the song I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas, read an informational book on hippos. Have your child give reasons why a hippo would or would not make a good pet.
- See if your child can remember the words and sing various Christmas songs. (i.e. Jingle Bells, Away in a Manger, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, etc.)
