Kid Craft: Shell Turtle

Mickey shared photos with me of the kid crafts they did while on vacation in NC with Meghan and her family - each day they had a theme with a craft, snack, and story that fit the theme. I'll share them with you this week, love this fun idea to entertain the kiddos! For reference I think the kids are all little, the 2 girls I know are ages 2 and 3. Obviously tailor your theme days so they are age appropriate. 

Here they made this adorable turtle using construction paper, a big painted shell, googly eyes and buttons. (one button obviously fell off on the plane ride home!).  

I can't remember the other details of each day but I googled for a couple suggestions. Turtle day craft is making these cute shell turtles; for the story you could read Yertle the Turtle by Dr. Seuss, The Foolish Tortoise by Richard Buckley, or If I Were a Turtle by Anne Wilkinson; and hmmm for a snack I'm not sure - maybe decorated cupcakes or cookies? Or maybe white chocolate fruit turtles using kiwi and grapes like I saw here at food-bites, click here for their instructions.  Too cute!!
