Tree: A Peek-Through Picture Book

Product Information

The Story: An owl sits in the trunk of a bare tree covered with snow. He observes the changes throughout the seasons and the reader is introduced to a variety of animals. The book goes full circle, even the owl disappears before spring comes again and all the animals come out to play. For this activity, I just used the printable on a Multicraft tray along with a washable stamp pad for kids to use to make fingerprint “leaves” for each season of tree.

Success!

I have a post and video on how to introduce words starting with phonograms, even with very young children.
