Contact_FullName: Lisa Contact_Email: jimmynlisa@thegateway.net date:: 09/02/03 Area: nursery rhymes-art Idea: The little old woman who lived in a shoe: I cut out a huge shape of a shoe (like the tall one for this rhyme) and I let the kids decorate it with paint and all kinds of stuff. When it was finished I let them paste a picture of themselves on it. It made a nice classroom project and the parents go a kick out of it. Contact_FullName: Lisa Contact_Email: jimmynlisa@thegateway.net date:: 09/02/03 Area: nursery rhymes-art Idea: I let the kids paint a handprint with black of each of their hands beside one another on a sheet of white paper to form a spider. They got to add wiggle eyes and I pasted on the bottom edge of their work the nursery rhyme of "little miss muffet".

I cut out a "window" shape and placed their picture in it. I put them on a bulletin board with the "peter, peter pumpkin eater nursery rhyme, or you could print the rhyme and paste it on the back. Peter, Peter, pumpkin eater, Had a wife and couldn't keep her; He put her in a pumpkin shell, and there he kept her very well.

They also made wands with paper towel rolls and a heart at the end with glitter. They were pretty and the kids played with them all day!
1-11-01We did this for Old Mother Hubbard. Take a piece of large, colored construction paper. Fold it so that the two ends fold inward towards the middle. (so it looks like you are opening a cabinet door). Give the children small dog biscuits to glue on the inner, flat piece of the paper, to look like dog bones on the shelf inside the cabinet.
11-18-00Mother Goose Hat: Draw head of goose with hat on white construction paper, give one to each child. Use scraps of colored tissue paper to glue on hat. These are wonderful if child crumples little pieces, they look like flowers. Glue wiggly eyes on goose face. Cut white lengths from white construction paper, measure to fit child's head and staple to face. Children love wearing hats!

10-23-00First, we read the nursery rhyme Little Miss Muffet. Then we made spiders. The body and legs were made from black construction paper. Where the spiders body is we glued white paper and wrote, "I'm scared of_______." The children wrote what they were scared of. On the bulletin board we put Little Miss Muffet making a scared face. She is saying "I'm scared of spiders what is K119 scared of?" Display the spiders all around the bulletin board. For border we cut out white jagged paper and made spider prints using black paint and our thumbs. Then we drew legs with a black marker.
9-10-00Rock-a-Bye Baby... Give child a precut manila tag baby shape for child to add facial features with crayons or washable markers. Let child name their "baby" and wrap it in a small square of soft flannel. Teacher staples the "blanket" to secure it. Let child hug baby while singing "Rock-a-Bye Baby".
9-9-00For 3 Kittens: We cut out 2 "mittens" and punched a hole at the top right corners of each. Use a piece of yarn to connect them together. Can make these out of paper and let the toddler embellish with pieces of material, rick rack, glitter or what ever you choose. To take this a bit farther, print left and right on the back of each. If you let the little one cut out the mitten patterns it helps to develop small motor skills. Another one is that we are making "kitten masks" using paper plates. Make a kitten puppet using a small lunch bag. And for dessert tonight, we are making each family member a small pie. You can purchase the little aluminum pie tins at the grocery store and make individual pies!
