Book-n-Craft Advent Activities December 12th

No Christmas book collection would be complete without How the Grinch Stole Christmas by Dr. Seuss. This has to be a Christmas classic. From the cartoon when I was younger to the full feature film, this story has delighted all. My daughter Keke has a facination with all things Seuss so this is her all time favorite author. We started with coloring some grinchy ornaments.

Her favorite is Cindy Lou Who. Then, J colored some reindeer antlers since the Grinch turns his dog, Max, into a reindeer. After she put on the antlers, we had to act out the story and I got to be the Grinch!

We worked on our teen number recognition. She would flip over the number cards and, if she said the number correctly, she could keep the card.

Of course, we ended with watching The Grinch Who Stole Christmas, the cartoon version. She explained all of my mistakes during our reinactment of the Grinch and has asked me to do better next time (which is apparently tomorrow morning). I just love being the Grinch!  I believe we are half way there!
