I love to craft ! No seriously, I do.

Ground Hog Day - Puppet (Easy)

As I sit in at the desk in the public library where I work...snow, snow, and more snow, and sunshine are pushing hard against the giant old windows of our beautiful building.   It's a bit deceiving, because it's so sunny, but it's about 10 degrees outside.   If you're like me, you like to stay busy on a blustery, yuck day.  So...let's craft.  All you need is a printer, crayons, scissor, and glue or tape.   Visit the link above to make your own Punxsutawney Phil. 

If you'd like to make this a literacy based activity, why not take a virtual tour with your family to the Official Ground Hog Day Website !   Ground Hog Day Website .  Or take a trip to your local library and dig into some of my favorite resources, DATABASES.  Databases will have lots of great articles about February weather, groundhogs, and anything you can dream about.  In New York State, you can access NOVEL NY databases at most public libraries with just a little help from a librarian, possessing a library card, and having access to a computer at home or in the library.   Well now that databases have put me in a good mood, I'm off to make my own groundhog craft.  Do you want Phil to see his shadow on Monday?
