Billy Goats Gruff Hat
We made hats to wear as we read The Three Billy Goats Gruff.
The materials used were
- big sheets of construction paper cut into 2" x 18"
- string to secure the hat
- hole puncher
- marker
- tape
- grey construction paper
Fold the grey paper in half and draw a horn shape on it. The children will get great fine motor skill practice cutting this out.
Make sure each child writes his/her first name on the band followed by Gruff. This way everyone will be a billy goat Gruff when the project is complete.
Tape the horns to the inside of the band. Try to make sure the horns are pointing up. A couple children ended up making billy goat Gruff ears and no horns. We accepted this as choosing to be the littlest billy goat Gruff.
Use the hole punch to create secure points to tie the string to. Now the hat can be adjusted to fit anyone!
The kids really got into this project and were braying around the room as goats for the rest of our Open Centers time.
