Kids Loft Lesson Five...

It's week five and Lil' Angel is still playing with the stacking rings!

She played with Mr Potato Head too!

Today's story is "Mr Seahorse". After Mrs. Seahorse deposits her eggs in his pouch, Mr. Seahorse drifts gently through the sea, meeting five other fish fathers who participate in prenatal care: Mr. Stickleback hatches the eggs; Mr. Tilapia holds the eggs in his mouth; Mr. Kurtus, a nursery fish, sticks the eggs on his head until they hatch; Mr. Pipe, a pipe fish, carries the eggs on his narrow belly; and Mr. Bullhead, a catfish, babysits newly hatched fry. With each encounter comes a delightful surprise: an acetate overlay camouflages the sea creatures as Mister Seahorse passes by: a lion fish hides in a coral reef; a stone fish hides behind a rock. Awash with the wonders of undersea life, this is a stunning, ingeniously conceived lesson in nature as well as a celebration of fatherly affection.
So for Art&Craft, the kids cut strips of colourful paper to paste on their seahorses!
