Three little pigs have been my favorite story for a long time. I love the different versions of the books and I know kids just adore building the houses, knocking them down and pretend-play the big bad wolf. It is always a hit.

This week we make puppets for our retelling of the story and practice sequencing. We build houses out of ‘straw, sticks and bricks’ and try to knock them down. We make slop for snack and practice shapes and counting together.

We are reading: Three Little Pigs and a Somewhat Bad Wolf and Galdone’s Three Little Pigs.
