Dragon Fun!

We are going to have so much Fun with Friends at Storytime with these Five Baby Dragons.  I saw these by Jessica @ Storytime in the Stacks and wanted a set of my own. Her rhyme is adorable! Any chance to blow bubbles or kisses is fine by me. I jazzed my set up by adding glitter glue and a tail on my dragons. We have several fun dragon books to use as well as my 10 dragons from a previous post  HERE.  Right now I have NO plans to make a Mama dragon but...I might in the future! LOL!  I'm sure these cuties will make return appearances in storytime. Be sure to check out the Flannel Friday Pinterest boards for more fairytale/dragon/medieval/royal inspiration! 

Dragons!!

I just had to share this great book that my grandson J. and I have really enjoyed for several weeks now! He tends to fixate on a favorite that we read over and over and over... Thank goodness this is one that I like too!  It is George and the Dragon by Chris Wormell.

This is a delightful book, with 2 page spread illustrations that are clear and fairly uncluttered, with minimal, clever text! Everytime we read it he understands the humor more and he notices more details in the illustrations. It's so much fun to be a part of his process!  This book reminded me of the 10 Dizzy Dragon felt set I made after I saw it mentioned at Sunflower Storytime. The rhyme is from Super Storytelling by Carol Elaine Catron & Barbara Catron Park. I tweaked the rhyme a little too. That eighth dragon line bothered me a little. My coworker suggested we change the line to be; 'the eighth dragon was best friends with a squire." (thanks Margaret!)  I made a set of dragons from felt and a deconstructed Google image. I used google eyes and fabric paint for the features. I'm still thinking about adding some glitter to their bellies! I can't leave well enough alone LOL!   Dragons are so much Fun With Friends at Storytime!
