Crafting Stories - Bear on a Bike

Today we read the story Bear on a Bike which is a great book with awesome artwork!  We also made a megaphone.  The idea that my daughter and I had was that the kids could read along and when the story repeats, the kids could use their megaphones to "read along" (aka scream "Bear on a bike as happy as can be, where are you going bear?  Please wait for me!")

The Book:

The Craft:

It may not look like much but these are a lot of fun!

• Take a large piece of paper and let the kids color it.
• Then roll it into a megaphone shape.
• Staple it to secure it.
• Punch a hole at either side and tie a ribbon between the two holes (this is the best - then they can sling it over their shoulder - very cool!)
• Hand it back to the child so that they can finish decorating it with stickers.

Enjoy!
