Winter Books – Celebrating the Season

in Books Books Books, Toddler Zone, Uncategorized on January 16, 2018

“Snow! Snow! Just look at the snow! Come out! Come out!         Come out in the snow.”

– Snow by Roy McKie & P.D. Eastman

During all of the holiday hubbub, winter officially graced us with its presence. We were a little busy then, celebrating Christmas and New Year’s with our families, so we didn’t give old man winter a whole lot of thought. We did, however, appreciate the fact that we got a white Christmas this year! We enjoyed playing in all of the snow…sledding, making snow angels, and getting our little nugget on her very first pair of skis! And while we have not seen much snow since, we are officially ready to celebrate the season!

So…we grabbed a bunch of snow-filled stories from our local library, and snuggled up to read all about the magic of winter. Of course, we wanted to share our favorites with all of you, so we’ve compiled the below list, for your reading pleasure.


Winter Books (2018)

Winter Books - Celebrating the Season © Capturing Parenthood

  • Snow by Roy McKie & P.D. Eastman
    • This playful tale invites you to join two friends (and their dog) on various winter adventures…from sledding and skiing to building igloos and a snowman. This story truly captures all the excitement of winter!
  • Bedtime for Yeti by Vin Vogel
    • While this adorable story is not exactly winter-themed, it’s all about a yeti (and his sidekick) at bedtime…and yetis are winter creatures, right? Our little nugget loves this book! She requests it every single night. She loves looking at all of the different faces that the yeti makes (after he’s forced to go to bed alone, because he can’t find his friend). Yetis are scared of the dark, you see. But her favorite part is when the yeti decides to be brave, by swooping down to save his trusty sidekick from the dangers lurking in the room. I mean, how could you go wrong with a cute and cuddly yeti, who turns into a brave superhero? 🙂
  • Singing Away the Dark by Caroline Woodward
    • This charming tale follows a young girl on her long (and chilly) trek to the school bus, on a windy winter’s day. Her path takes her across snowy fields, and through a dark and noisy forest. She’s nervous walking through the woods, and across the farmland dotted with grazing cattle, but she’s found that singing helps her forget about all of the things that make her uncomfortable. She sings until the darkness disappears, sings to stay calm, sings for strength, sings for warmth…and before she knows it, the headlights of the school bus blaze into view, and she’s off for another school day.
  • Winter Dance by Marion Dane Bauer
    • We follow a beautiful red fox through this cute winter story. His mission? To find out what he’s supposed to do when the snowflakes start flying and winter finally arrives. We learn that turtles burrow down in the mud during the winter, birds fly south, snowshoe hares turn as white as the snow, and bears sleep. But what does a red fox do during the winter? You’ll have to read the story to find out!
  • Goodbye Autumn, Hello Winter by Kenard Pak
    • The author of the fan-favorite Goodbye Summer, Hello Autumn weaves us through another delightful tale, showing us all of the different signs that tell us winter is coming. Winds blow the leaves from the trees, birds set their sights on warmer weather in the south, days become shorter and nights longer, and we all watch as snowflakes, frost and icicles begin to adorn the world around us.
  • Mingo the Flamingo by Pete Oswald & Justin K. Thompson
    • It was on Mingo’s very first flight south for the winter, that the flock of flamingos flew directly into a storm. Mingo became separated from his parents and crash-landed on a snow-covered farm. The crash resulted in a few injuries, as well as memory loss. Mingo had no idea what (or who) he was anymore. Will the farm animals take him in? Will Mingo ever remember who he is, or where he belongs? Our little nugget reads this heart-warming story on a daily basis…usually alongside the flamingo that she received for Christmas (who she ironically named Flamingo Mingo). 🙂
  • Ten on the Sled by Kim Norman
    • This musical story provides loads of fun, as well as lots of counting practice. Follow along as ten animals make their way down the snow-covered mountain, on their large toboggan. But watch out! At every turn, another animal slips off the sled. The majority of this story can be sung to the tune of the “Ten in the Bed” children’s song and nursery rhyme.
  • Bear Snores On by Karma Wilson
    • We always enjoy reading about Bear and his group of friends, and in this installment we learn what Bear likes to do during cold, snowy winters. We follow along as Bear snuggles up and hibernates in his cave in the woods…and we marvel at how he can continue sleeping, even after all of his friends arrive to feast and play. Bear snores on. That is…until a small fleck of pepper causes a great big sneeze, and a very grumpy bear awakens!
  • Walking in a Winter Wonderland by Richard B. Smith, Felix Bernard & Tim Hopgood
    • This snow-filled saga is my absolute favorite! As I’ve mentioned before, books based on songs are a huge hit in our household. And while I enjoy singing along with this winter classic, what I truly love, is how all of the beautiful illustrations invite you right into the magical winter wonderland that unfolds throughout the pages! Tim Hopgood did a magnificent job with every single image in this story, and I highly recommend snagging a copy, if you haven’t already!

We’ve loved celebrating the snowiest of seasons with these charming winter books! In fact, they’ve even provided inspiration for a few winter-themed arts + crafts! Check out our Instagram account (@capturingparent2016) tomorrow, to catch a glimpse of the craft we made of our good friend, Bear! And more wintry arts + crafts will be up on the blog on Thursday!

Ok...@artwithmrs.e Haunted House project is hands- Ok...@artwithmrs.e Haunted House project is hands-down the best Halloween-themed art project out there! 🙌🙌🙌
We had a blast creating haunted houses for homeschool art this month! 🧡
...
We followed Kaitlyn's extremely helpful Haunted House Drawing Guide (you can find it over on her Teachers Pay Teachers account) and completed the project over the course of 3 lessons.
...
During our first lesson, we sketched our houses in pencil, and added some eerie exterior landscaping. 🪦🦇
We popped in a few spooky characters (ghosts, spiders, pumpkins, and a vampire). 👻🕷🎃🧛
And then we traced over our pencil lines with black Sharpie.
...
During our next lesson, we used a coloring technique that we learned from Kristian @friendsartlab ❤️ We colored our pictures with oil pastels...and then painted over the top of the oil pastels with baby oil...it causes the oil pastels to bleed and blend together! 🤩
...
During our final lesson...we added more spooky characters to the inside of our house...that can peek out behind the doors and windows. 💀🧙‍♀️👻
To do this...I used an X-acto knife and carefully cut around the outside edges of the doors/windows (leaving the hinge sides intact so that they could fold open and closed).
We placed yellow construction paper in the background...and added witches, ghosts, skeletons, a mummy, and a Frankenstein! 😍
This step made our haunted houses really come to life...and we just can't thank Kaitlyn @artwithmrs.e enough for sharing this awesome lesson and drawing guide! THE ABSOLUTE BEST! ❤️❤️❤️
...
It was very evident how much our daughter loved this project...as we worked through each step...but the thing that solidified just how much she enjoyed it was - one weekend morning I walked downstairs to find her and her dad sitting at the table - and she was very excitedly teaching him how to draw his own haunted house - while she drew a few more herself (scroll to the last picture in the carousel)! 🥰

I decided that these six little pumpkins needed a I decided that these six little pumpkins needed a permanent place on our feed...because WE GREW THEM OURSELVES!!! 🎃
That's right...first-time pumpkin-growers over here...and it was all actually a bit of a surprise. 😃
...
You see, when we went to prep our garden beds this spring, we noticed a plant that had already started growing. We assumed it was a cucumber plant, since it was in the same place we had cucumbers last year.
We left it alone and planted a couple of other cucumber plants nearby. 🥒
At first, the leaves on our mystery plant looked very similar to the leaves on our other cucumber plants.
But a couple of weeks later the plant had grown A LOT bigger. It was now obvious that it was not a cucumber plant. But what was it? 🤷‍♀️
...
And that's when it suddenly dawned on these exhausted parents, that our daughter had spontaneously tossed seeds from her pumpkin (last Halloween), into the garden bed. 🤦‍♀️ The mystery was finally solved...and by the looks of the large golden flowers that were emerging all over the vines...we figured we might have a few pumpkins come fall! 🙌🎃🙌
...
It was so much fun to watch the pumpkin plant grow! 🤩 We had to cut down the wire on one side of our garden bed to let the vines out...and they ended up growing 6-10 feet long in both directions! 😳 It was crazy!
They put out the most gorgeous flowers...that the bees absolutely loved! 🧡 And soon enough, we spotted a few round gourds growing at the base of some of the flowers. They grew quickly...and then turned a beautiful shade of orange! 😍
...
Needless to say, we are now officially pumpkin-growing people! 😂 My husband can't wait to plant more next year...and he's already looking in to different varieties - hoping to grow some larger jack-o-lantern style ones next season! 🎃

Free the Frankensteins from the Frozen Rainbow Bra Free the Frankensteins from the Frozen Rainbow Brain! 😬🌈🧠
…
Yesterday, we shared how we made this colorful, frozen rainbow brain - full of Frankenstein mini erasers…and today we wanted to show you what became of our beautiful brain! 😃
…
We popped it out onto a tray, grabbed a shaker of salt, a bottle of warm water (colored red for added effect), and some tongs.
And then it was time to Free the Frankensteins (our daughter coined the phrase)! 😉
…
This spooky activity provides chilly sensory play, motor skills practice, and scientific exploration (salt and warm water speed-up the melting process)! 🙌🙌🙌
As an added bonus…you also get some color-mixing! And the addition of the salt makes it extra sparkly too! 😍🤩😍
…
Eventually, all you’re left with is some mini erasers floating in a pool of colorful water…and a happy kid! ❤️❤️❤️

We are definitely getting into the fall and Hallow We are definitely getting into the fall and Halloween spirit...so during a recent homeschool art session, we decided to make some air-dry clay pumpkins and jack-o-lanterns! 🎃🎃🎃
...
Back in 2019, Lauralee @2art.chambers shared several colorful, air-dry clay pumpkins that her students made...and after rediscovering the saved post, I decided that it would be a perfect October art lesson for us too! 🧡
...
We used various colors of air-dry clay, and rolled each color into whatever pumpkin shape we wanted...and then we added our lines/indentations using the side of a credit card. 💳 The stems are just small, broken pieces of old crayons (another genius idea from Lauralee). 🖍 And we topped our stems with pieces of pipe cleaner, to create the little curly cues. 😍
...
Once we had our pumpkins...we decided to change things up a bit, and grabbed our stash of googly eyes. 👀 (Most of) our fall pumpkins then transformed into Halloween jack-o-lanterns! 🎃
We pressed the googly eyes into the clay, and we used a few small tools (that came with our box of air-dry clay) to add their mouths. 😃
...
And now we have a cute and colorful crew of clay pumpkins adorning our mantle! 🎃🧡🎃

Andrew from @elementaryarts shared a patterned, bl Andrew from @elementaryarts shared a patterned, block letter name project a couple of weeks ago (I'll share the post in stories today), and I immediately added it to our list of art projects to do this year! 😍
But we decided to switch things up a little bit! Instead of using our names, we each picked a color that we like...wrote the name of the color in block letters on our paper...and created our color patterns using at least two different shades of our chosen color. 🖍
...
This colorful project ended up being a lot of fun, and also very relaxing...as we all quietly focused, and zoned in on adding the color patterns around all of our letters. It was actually a bit hypnotizing! 🤩
...
Needless to say, we are really happy with the way our block letter color project turned out! 🙌 We even had a special guest who wanted to join in on this art project! ❤️
...
P.S. We also used Andrew’s free TPT handout on how to make block letters! The bundle includes bubble letters, cursive letters, graffiti letters, and more! 👍

We created self-portraits for our first art projec We created self-portraits for our first art project of our homeschool year...and we are pretty obsessed with them! 🤩✏️🤩
...
I love the idea of doing a self-portrait project at the beginning of the year, and then again at the end of the year...so that we can see how much we've grown and changed.
...
We used Kaitlyn's @artwithmrs.e Simple Self-Portrait Drawing Guide and it was so incredibly helpful (especially for this new homeschool teacher who wouldn't necessarily list drawing as one of her stronger suits). 😉
We actually purchased her entire Guided Drawing Bundle (over on Teachers Pay Teachers) and we highly recommend it! 🙌🙌🙌
...
We looked through the self-portrait drawing guide to get different ideas for our eyes, nose, mouth, and hair. 👀👃👄
...
Now...if you caught our stories earlier this week, you know that our daughter recently made a pretty big change to her hair (that included a partial side-shave and bob-length cut - she also dyed it blue). 💇‍♀️
She was used to drawing pictures of herself with her long, blonde locks...and her new hairstyle proved rather difficult. But she persevered, and ended up with a self-portrait that she was truly proud of! 🥰
...
When we were finished drawing our likenesses, we decided to cut them out and create a special background to glue them onto. I went with random black and white designs...and our nugget decided to draw various things that she loves (her family, winter, candy, books, dolphins...and more)! ❤️
...
It was such a fun project...and I can't wait to see what our self-portraits look like at the end of our school year! 😃
