Tales for Tots sponsored by Scholastic Canada - Superworm

At our most recent Tales for Tots sponsored by Scholastic Canada, we read Superworm by Julia Donaldson.  It's a wacky and fun adventure starring an unforgettable hero, Superworm!


The kids had so much fun listening to this story and were sitting in anticipation waiting to hear what was going to happen next!  They loved all the colourful illustrations and rhyming lines.


After our story was done, it was time to make some crafts.  In honour of our book, our tots made their very own Superworm.  We used pipe cleaners and beads, to make some fun wiggly worms.  This is a wonderful activity to help improve eye & hand coordination and colour recognition.  We also had some fun downloadable sheets we got from Scholastic Canada that our tots could colour in.




Our theme for January was also all about trains, planes and automobiles.  We had fun making our own name train.  A fun activity to help our little ones learn to spell.  We glued popsicle sticks onto a sheet a paper to make our train track.  We cut out squares which represented the box cars.  On each box they wrote out each letter for their name.  They glued these onto a sheet of paper and used the bingo dabbers to make the wheels.  We drew in a smoke stack and Voila!  They had their very own Name Train!
 
 
 
Our tots couldn't resist in joining the train as we sang around Indigo.  Great exercise and a ton of fun!
 

One of our lucky little members got to take home her very own copy of Superworm!  Congrats!
