There was a Crooked Man Nursery Rhyme

Here's my set for the nursery rhyme There was a Crooked Man. This was a combination of several Google images and lots of simplifying and rearranging but I'm pleased with the results.  I bent a copper colored sequin for the sixpence. I used glitter glue on the windows and lantern of the crooked house and some fabric paint for faces and buttons.  This was tedious but rewarding as it came together! We will be doing a house and then mouse theme to go with this rhyme. I have other posts for those themes.  HOUSE and MOUSE.   Be sure to check out my other nursery rhyme posts too.  We are featuring a nursery rhyme for 2 weeks at our storytimes so that the children can enjoy these fun, silly rhymes! We are having so much Fun With Friends at Storytime!

Three Little Pigs

Oh My Goodness, Ms Jenna has inspired me to return to the classics.  Ms Jenna's Three Little Pigs flannel set posted HERE  is absolutely adorable!! I used her initial ideas and tweaked a little and tested the story on my 4 year old grandson! Success! He loved it and used the pieces to retell it to me.  I chinny chin chinned and huffed and puffed and he wanted to hear it again! My ending has the wolf climbing on the roof to go down the chimney and the pigs putting a bubbling pot on the fire for the wolf to fall into. He howls, "Owwwwwwwwwwww" and runs out of the door and far away and the three pigs (all in the brick house by now) live happily ever after!  J. loved the howling and the happy ending. So did I! Thanks for sharing Ms. Jenna!!
