Five Little Snowflakes
One little snowflake with nothing to do.
Along came another and then there were two.
Two little snowflakes laughing with me.
Along came another, and then there were three.
Three little snowflakes looking for some more.
Along came another, and then there were four.
Four little snowflakes dancing a jive.
Along came another, and then there were five.
Five little snowflakes having so much fun.
Out came the sun, and then there were none!

Shadow Guessing Game
I used several small Ellison die-cuts to make 8 shadows from black felt. The kids easily guessed all the shapes so next time I might add a few more.

| Groundhog Craft |
Our Groundhog pop-up craft was from Groundhog Day on OWLS and OWLS of Fun. Print out a groundhog for the kids to color. Then lay the groundhog on black paper and glue just his feet down. Using colored chalk, color around the groundhog. When he sits up, you'll see the groundhog's shadow.
