Flip type books

Mundo Lindo

You know those books that your can flip and give the figure a different head, or legs? Well, inspired by Carla Sonheim's Silly class, we created 3 page books.

I created the pages, with the dotted lines, and they each drew 3 different figures.

They could do people, animals, plants...and they did!

Full class, even though the kids received no reminder phone calls, they all showed up on the start date! (well, some even showed up last week, before we started up again.)
