Jan. 29

I'm looking ahead to Groundhog's Day later this week.  I saw a cute groundhog made out of a heart, and decided to try it my way.  Here it is.

It's all made from a sheet of 9 x 18 manila paper.  I've seen it made by cutting the hearts for the head, ears, teeth and nose from colored construction paper... brown for the head and ears, white for the teeth, and black for the nose.  However, I like to let the kids color their pieces for projects.  I decided to use hearts for the eyes as well.  We'll make it Thursday.  Cutting the hearts will give them good practice for Valentine's Day sacks next week!
