"Split!, Splat!" washes up at Tales for Tots and momstown KW

"Split!, Splat!" was the book we read this month at momstown KW and Tales for Tots.
This fantastic book about rainy day fun was donated by Scholastic Canada

The book about a girl and her dog playing on a rainy day had a rhythm to it. Almost as if you could sing the words!

We made our own rain shakers to go with the book. 










We filled washed yogurt containers and filled them with beans, pasta, mini pom-poms and colourful beads. Then we decorated the outside with fun stickers!







The result was a fun toy that sounded like rain on a roof when you shake it. They were a great compliment to our monthly theme of Wet, Wet, Wet and this months book.
Of course, who could forget the draw at the end of the morning.


A lucky brother and sister got to take the book home to read or sing along with their personal rain shakers!


Join us next moth when we read another awesome book form Scholastic Canada.
