The Mitten

The kids made their very own mittens after reading "The Mitten" by Jan Brett.

They especially like the part when the animals exploded out of the mitten

 once the mouse squeezed in.

SONGS

Oh, My Mittens

(tune: Clementine)

Oh, my mittens! Oh, my Mittens!

So soft and warm and snug.

All the fleece that's on the inside

Gives my hands a winter hug!

GAMES

Have each student lace together two mitten cutouts, leaving an opening at the cuff. Reread "The Mitten" and have the children place each animal card in the mitten at the appropriate time.
