A CAVE OF STARS


"There are soooooo many things to do with an empty box, the options are almost endless.  We happened to have a huge one and it went from a house, to a cave, to a cave of stars.  Its a simple concept, really - but oh so fun!!!

All you need is a box, a paint brush, a knife, and a strand of Christmas lights.  I took a paint brush (the size of the ones you get with watercolors), and poked holes in the top of the box.  Then I pushed the Christmas lights through, and we had STARS!!  We gazed up at the stars together, talking about their colors and about real stars - and even read books in our "cave of stars".  It was a wonderful adventure!!  - AK"

To add some additional language activities try using;
 
prepositions:
- in the cave
- out of the cave
- look up
- under the stars


Colours:
- blue star
- red star
- green star


Counting:
- how many stars can you see?


verbs:
- crawling
- sitting
- lying down
- hiding
- sleeping
- looking
- wishing


I hope you all have fun with this magical idea


love, Lauren
