Week 2


Today the kids read the book Papa Oblong by LeRoy Blankenship. You can check out his website by clicking here, but it isn't very kid friendly.

If you would like some other great books about Noah's Ark, check these out:

One More River: A Noah's Ark Counting Book by Joan Paley

Noah's Ark (Picture Yearling Book) by Peter Spier

Noah's Ark (Caldecott Honor Book) by Jerry Pinkney

The kids in the older rooms made a beautiful rainbow mobile and the younger kids colored a rainbow picture.


If your little ones would like to do more crafts, check out these links.

Make a Noah's ark out of paper plates, click here.

This is a great site for coloring pages that you can print at home. I linked it right to the Noah's Ark pages.

If you are feeling really Martha Stewartish-- you can bake your kids an ark cake. Here's how you can make it out of pre-made pound cake.

I also found some games that you can do in the Noah's Ark vein, click here.
