Crafts:
1. Squishy Snake Painting: Purchase a bag of stretchy (squishy snakes as my children call them) at your local Wal-Mart or Dollar Tree. Put washable paint on a plate in front of each child & hand them 3 snakes each. Children can put the snakes in the paint & use them to make an imprint on the paper. You could do this as a group mural, on a large piece of paper, or as individual projects.
2. Alligator Puppet: Print out an alligators/crocodile image on construction paper or white printer paper. Have the children color the alligators if it is printed on white paper. Glue the head to the top of the paper bag and glue the mouth to the bottom part of the paper bag, under the flap. Place your hand inside the bag and curve your fingers over the fold to move the puppet.
