"lion day":
put on the lion hat from a halloween costume and traced the lion's shadow
painted a lion plate (pace and i cut out the ears, eyes, nose, and tongue together), glued on the face and mane, then painted the mane orange
letter "l" for lion abc activities
and later in the week (after finding lion stuffed animals) we went on a lion hunt! this was one of my favorite things to do with my mom when i was little!
we're going on a lion hunt,
we're not afraid!
got my canteen by my side,
and my binoculars too.
coming up to short grass now
can't go under it,
can't go around it,
we'll have to go through it!
(swish, swish, swish, swish)
we're going on a lion hunt (repeat)
coming up to long grass now
can't go under it,
can't go around it,
we'll have to go through it!
(swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh)
we're going on a lion hunt (repeat)
coming up to mud now
can't go under it,
can't go around it,
we'll have to go through it!
(squelch, squelch, squelch, squelch)
we're going on a lion hunt (repeat)
coming up to a bridge now
can't go under it,
can't go around it,
we'll have to go over it!
(climb, climb, climb, climb)
we're going on a lion hunt (repeat)
coming up to a cave now...
it's very dark...
i've found something...
it's soft and furry...
it's warm and moves...
ahhhhh! it's a lion! run!
back over the bridge!
(climb, climb, climb, climb)
back through the mud!
(squelch, squelch, squelch, squelch)
back through the tall grass!
(swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh)
back through the short grass!
(swish, swish, swish, swish)
when pace saw cuddly little stuffed lions, he was not going to run away for anything! he scooped them right up, hugged them tight, and grinned from ear to ear, "lions, mama, lions!" i told him to pick one for himself and one for max. max promptly got to his specialty: nose nuzzling! and pace wanted to cuddle in the lion cave! i am so lucky to have such sweet, sweet boys!
and then daddy got home from work and showed us how to *really* catch a lion!
