Bring Books Alive

You will need....

* Storybooks with your child's farvorite charactors in them.
* White computer paper that is clear enough to trace with.
* Clear transparent Con-Tact paper.
* Colored pencils, crayons, or markers.
* Pencil



Take your child's favorite storybook and trace or draw the characters in the story using white computer paper.

Color and cut the characters out.

Cover them with the clear transparent Con-Tact paper and trim around the edges.

Have fun recreating the story using your cut out characters.

The children can put on a show with their characters by making up new stories. No need for a theater just have the kids kneel down behind a couch.
