Children’s Book Extension Activities
Included in this If you Give a Mouse A Cookie printables pack you will find a printable story book which can be printed out and stapled together.
Depending on the child’s age, they can read the printable storybook themselves by using their memory from the book and the images in the printable.
Once I have printed out the puppets, I like to laminated for added strength before sticking the back of the story puppets onto a paddlepop stick for little hands are able to hold them. They will enjoy using these puppets as they retell the story in their own words.
The math activities in this printable pack help children learn and practice counting from 1 to 10. They are able to do this with the number matching cards, clip cards and I Spy fun.
