Here at the Educators’ Spin On It, we LOVE Books! Books are a great way to connect learning experiences together for your child in a meaningful way. This week, we are snuggling up with this kid winter story collection and creating our own new winter babies!

This Diverse Collection of books was created for children ages 0-7 by Lee & Low Publishing. Lee & Low are an independent publisher of multicultural literature for young readers. We are excited to partner with them to help introduce you to some fantastic diverse literature. This series was designed especially for parents and classrooms with multi-age and ability children around a central theme of family, celebrations, and winter.

Kids Stories with Pictures of Winter Craft

After reading the book with my children, ages 2, 5, and 8, we pulled out their own baby books and made personal connections to the picture book. We talked about the season when they started to sit and when they started to walk. Then, we decided to make our own Baby Born!

Materials Needed for Winter Craft:

Cup
Pencil
White paper
Scissors
Glue
Scrap book paper

Directions for Winter Craft:

1. Tip the cup over and trace the rim on a piece of paper. This will be the circle for the head.

2. Cut several of these 2-3 inch circles from white paper.

3. Color the circles to resemble baby faces.

4. Glue the circles onto a piece of scrapbook paper.

5. Cut an oval out around the face to resemble a blanket swaddling the baby.
