Game/Activity: A traditional Russian folk dance is called the pereplyas. Look up a few videos of this dance online, and then pull on a pair of fuzzy snow boots, and practice the new steps you've learned!
Snack: Satisfy your sweet tooth today, and bake some yummy Russian tea cakes (you might also have heard these treats called Mexican wedding cakes or snowballs).
Craft: Likely due to the harsh, cold winters Russia is accustomed to, Grandfather Frost is a popular fairy tale character. Using a piece of black or dark blue construction paper for your background, use chalk to draw a picture of what you think Grandfather Frost must look like.
This is our last story time at home post for the season; I hope you've enjoyed trying out some new ideas! And check your calendars... Spring Story Time is right around the corner!
Keep reading!
