toddler time: fun with foxes!
Mystery Box: Inside our polka dotted box, we found a FOX!!!! Would you like to pet my friend Foxy?
Our groups were on the smaller side so it was nice to be able to give the kids a closer look & a chance to feel Foxy's soft fur.
Puppet Song: Foxy, Foxy
I was agonizing over the opening song all week then came up with this right before my class! I sang it to the tune of Brown Squirrel, Brown Squirrel:
Foxy, Foxy, swish your furry tail!
Foxy, Foxy, swish your furry tail!
With pointy ears & a cute black nose,
You’re fast & sneaky wherever you go!
Foxy, Foxy swish your furry tail!
Next, I passed out orange cardstock foxes (adorable template from Sunflower Storytime) and we did:
Hold your fox up!
Hold your fox down.
Hold your fox & turn around.
Hold your fox up!
Hold your fox down.
Put your fox on the ground.
We gave the foxes to our grown up (if we wanted!) for the rest of the program.
Books We Read:
The Little Fox Who Lost His Tail- Robaard
What Does the Fox Say- Ylvis
Flannel Board: Is Foxy in the Box?
Mama Fox is looking for her baby Foxy. Is he hiding in one of these boxes?
(Tune: Farmer in the Dell)
Is Foxy in the box? Is Foxy in the box?
Is Foxy in the LITTLE box
Is Foxy in the box?
Let's check! 1 -2-3...Nope, no fox in that one.
(repeat with a BIGGER box and a GREAT BIG box)

Craft: Paper Plate Foxes
Found this idea HERE. it seemed easier to skip the tissue paper part, both for me (avoided all that cutting of tissue into squares!) and for the little ones (all that time gluing the tissue onto the plates takes time & their attention spans are so short) so it was a win-win to me! if i had an older group, i would definitely use the tissue paper tho.
I just bought large orange paper plates from Amazon & cut them into a triangle-ish shape. Kids attached pre-cut ears, eyes & noses!
We also colored our cardstock foxes and taped them to popsicle sticks to make puppets.
Two smaller groups today, about 15 kids each. The books were so-so for me, even the song one which i thought they would really like. i did not read/sing that whole book, just the first two verses. i shook a little tambourine when i sang the silly fox noises. the craft, puppet song & flannel board worked great tho. a fun day!
