Craft: H Is for Hippo
This week's craft was based on the picture at left. The children colored an uppercase H cutout as well as a hippo head. They then glued the head to the H. They could bend the legs to make the hippo stand.
Extension Activities:
- Hippos Go Berserk is a counting book. Ask your child to count how many hippos are on each page as you go through the book.
- Practice letter recognition by asking your child to point out the letter "H"s as you go through a book.
