The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything

Today we read "The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything".  This is a fun book to read a loud and have fun with.

Making Learning Fun is the best resource I have found for this book.  There are flannel board pieces like above and activities like the ones pictured below, plus more.

 Here is my son's very own scarecrow.  He actually colored some which is great considering he tries to avoid coloring as much as possible!

 This is a free printable that is a fun way to review the book.

This Roll a Scarecrow is a fun game to play a long with this story.

Top Posts in 2013

My youngest son and I have colds that we have been battling with so we didn't jump back into preschool today as I had originally planned, but I hope to this week.

In the mean time I thought I would share my top posts of 2013.  It is fun to look back at what we've done the passed year and to see what is popular to other people.  So here is a look at my top five posts in 2013.

The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything Preschool

 Today we read "The Little Old Lady Who was Not Afraid of Anything" by Linda Williams and did activities to go along with the book.

All of my children love the fun, repetition in the story.  My son had me read it to him several times and he enjoyed saying the parts that repeat.  Making Learning Fun is the best resource I have fun for activities to go along with this book.  Including these flannel board pieces. (and yes, my son is still kind of a sickie)

It also has great activities including the story stick, matching game, matching game, and more.

Of course, my son wanted to paint so we made this scarecrow also from Making Learning Fun.

This is a really fun roll/spin a scarecrow game.  

There is also a large scarecrow with this printable.  My son had a great time saying what the book said as he built the scarecrow.  Example, "The boots go clomp, clomp."

You can check out what we did in 2011 and in 2012 with this book. Also, I planned to do more scarecrow activities as well. 

The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything

Today we read and did activities for The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything.  It is  a really fun story and was kind of a continuation of our scarecrow theme from yesterday.

 Making Learning Fun has a ton of great printables to go with the story including flannel board piece pictured above and this sequencing activity pictured below.

 This is a cute activity.  You can choose do roll a scarecrow or spin a scarecrow.  I found it for free here.

 There is also a larger scarecrow you can print with this activity.

 I found this activity sheet to go with the book here.

 These printables are for a little more advanced, but you ask the questions, have your child answer and write them for them if they are not able to do it themselves.

You can see what we did with this book last year here.
