My toddlers are obsessed with the big bad wolf right now, Josie especially. Her favorite is The 3 Little Pigs but she’s also really enjoying Little Red Riding Hood.
We read the books pretty often and I also found a couple YouTube videos of each story that the kids really like.
Josie always asks to watch this “scary” Three Little Pigs and the Big Bad Wolf, which is actually an older version. That one is definitely her favorite, but Sylas likes a newer version better (Three Little Pigs kids story cartoon).
They agree on the same Little Red Riding Hood video, so that’s good. I don’t have to sit through two different versions of the same cartoon.
Anyway, Josie asked to make a wolf with paint and of course, I said yes. I never pass up on an opportunity for crafts. I sometimes regret that afterward when there’s a mess to clean up but it’s worth it.
She used brown paint on a paper plate for the wolf’s head and then I helped her cut out construction paper in the shape of a snout, teeth, eyes, ears, and nose.
She glued all the shapes together and put them on the paper plate.
It turned out sooooo cute!! I love it and so does she.
She’s been walking about the house with it in front of her face and growling. She thinks it’s hilarious.
