When I worked in daycare/ preschool, a favorite book with all the children was Chicka Chicka Boom Boom. This is a very cute coconut tree to make after reading the book. Have fun!
First, I painted the trunk of the tree.
Next, the fun begins when you start painting little toes. Warning: giggling will occur, this is normal:)
Stamp your child's foot on the paper to create the top of the tree.
After you clean off your child's foot, make a few coconuts with their thumbprint.
Last, glue on a few letters and you have a "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom" coconut tree.
Here is the book that inspired me. Check it out!
so cute!
ReplyDeletei love your music! both my girls listened to that every night as newborns as i rocked them to sleep! it brings great memories! is it alright if i have that music on my blog too! you reminded me how much i love that song!
Absolutely. Please put it on your blog:) When I worked in the baby room at the daycare, I rocked the babies to this too! It was so soothing it made me want to nap too.
ReplyDeleteThat is genius! I love this book...my neice and nephew frequently ask me to "recite" it...Yes, I do have most of the book memorized and I don't even have kids! I think it is one of the top books for kids!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute! We were planning a handprint tree, but ran out of time. I think I like the footprint tree even better!
ReplyDeleteWow, we did the handprint tree. Isn't it a great book!
ReplyDeleteLove this! So cute! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWe did your tree last week! I will be blogging about it in the next couple of days, too. :)
