Flannel Projects: Owls and Butterflies

This week it seems that my projects have leaned toward things that fly! In the midst of webinars and planning for the next storytime session, I have made flannel butterflies and owls.


Flannel Butterflies:
One rhyme that one of my LA's came up with for Five Butterflies is:
Five butterflies in the garden, oh what a sight!
Now the purple butterfly has taken flight.
First she flies up high, then she flies down low,
Then she flies round and round, before she has to go.
Count down...4, 3, 2, 1 while changing the color of the butterfly

Flannel Owls:
For five owls we have used this rhyme:
Five hoot owls, sitting in a tree.
One flew away! Now how many do you see?
1, 2, 3, 4...
Count down...
