Read the book The Lorax (Classic Seuss)
What you need: several colors of construction paper, glue, black or brown markers, and craft sticks.
We glued the green paper to the blue paper.
We drew lines on our craft sticks. This is a great prewriting activity for kids to do.
We glued the sticks on to the paper.
We torn the paper and glued it on the sticks. I love torn paper because it is a great way to work in fine motor without kids knowing about it.
The finished product.
