Three Little Pigs Day

On Monday, we had a "Three Little Pigs" day.  We started by reading the "Three Little Pigs" story. Then we took an old cereal box, cut out a long rectangle for the walls and a smaller rectangle for the roof. We folded and glued to make little cardboard houses. The kids then glued cut up yellow yarn to make "straw houses".  I drew a pig, they colored it pink, and we cut it out and glued it onto the house. -Voila - the first little pig in his straw house.

 We then made "stick houses" out of lincoln logs.

Using another old cereal box, I made a larger house which Caroline colored red. I helped her draw the "bricks" with permanent marker.

 We capped off our three little pigs day with piggy pancakes for lunch...( a larger pancake, a small pancake for the nose, 2 quarters of a small pancake for the ears, and chocolae chips for the snout holes and eyes. )
