Monkey Business

We made it to story time at the library a few weeks ago. The theme of the day was jungle animals. They started out dancing the Animal Stomp, listened to a story about a monkey who floated away on a lily pad and learned a thing or two from other animals in the jungle, and then we listened to a second story about a boy who was an outfielder on a baseball team that dreamed about being different animals. The activity of the day was making Monkey Cupcakes.

Here is Zoe's finished product. I think she enjoyed the chocolate frosting more than anything.
Noah's finished product.
This project was pure torture for mom, since she isn't supposed to eat sugar. The frosting smelled so good, and the licorice looked so tasty. Somehow I managed to control myself.
I am so thankful that my small town has so many free activities for my kids.
