Dog's Colorful Day

 

I love Emma Dodd! 

Her big bold images are perfect for converting to feltiness.

This is an edited down version of her book, Dog’s Colorful Day.  Dog becomes a messy rainbow of primary and secondary colored spots.

 

 Here is Dog. She is white and has one black spot.

Jumping Jellyfish!

I made some awesome jellyfish and have been doing 

the "Three Jellyfish" song, but it falls kind of flat.

 "Jumping Jellyfish," jumps it up a bit.

  

Three jellyfish sitting on a rock.

One fell off. Wheeeeee...splash!

Rainbows and Space Totoros!

My library lets me put felt stuff in our display cases 

during the month of August.

This year I made a "Kawaii Spy" game:

Rockin' Humpty

I love this remix of Humpty Dumpty. It combines a version found on the KCLS website with a less violent, puddle/cuddle variation. Check out KCLS’s link to Intellidance videos. They are super relevant for upbeat library storytimes!
