Hats Spanish and Bilingual StoryTime and Craft: December 6th and December 8th, 2012

You may have noticed that the story time programs for October and November 2012 are slightly out of order. Sorry about that. There were some posts I had as drafts because of missing information, but now, except for one post that I published that needs a photo, I'm fully updated.

Okay...here are the plans for the hat story time I did for both the Spanish and bilingual programs. We also made sailor hats out of newspaper after the programs. Although I  knew it wasn't exactly age-appropriate with all the steps involved, parents took the reigns on this one, and the kids were excited to wear their hats.

This positive attitude toward books will help your child when he or she starts school and begins learning how to read. Deje que su hijo escoja libros y decirte por qué él o ella le gustan.

The Craft: Newspaper Sailor Hats
You'll Need:

-tape

Instructions for the kids/parents:
-For this craft, I made up an instruction sheet in English and in Spanish (double-sided), but it wasn't as helpful as the visual directions from the PSA Stamp Camp blog: http://psastampcamp.blogspot.com/2012/03/sailor-hat-tutorial.html

I highly recommend practicing lots and lots before doing this craft with a larger group.
