Kerry read "Let's Count Goats", by Mem Fox, with help from Koltyn to turn pages!
Next we read "There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly", by Simms Taback. Jacob helped me turn pages with this book.
With help from Isabella to turn pages, we read "Dogabet", by Dianna Bonder.
Our craft was a caterpillar!
The kids picked the colours they wanted for their caterpillars, and as many circles as they needed to spell their names. Then they drew on faces, added feet and antennae!
Next we had a prize draw! The Henday Association and Kerry Towle each donated wonderful prizes to this event. And the winner was ...
Jacob! Congratulations!
