The Umbrella by Jan Brett
Summary: This book is a tropical twist on The Mitten, taking place in Costa Rica. More and more animals pile into the umbrella ~ great illustrations as always!
What You’ll Need:
- Pink, blue, and black foam sheet/construction paper
- Pencil {to outline}
- Scissors
- Glue
How to Make the ‘U” Umbrella:
- Trace and cut an uppercase ‘U’ out of a foam sheet {you choose the color} or construction paper. I used a foam sheet that was about 4" x 5" in size.
- Cut an ‘inside’ for the letter U ~ to use as the inside of the umbrella. I used a complimentary color so that the letter U would stand out.
- Use the black foam to cut a handle for your umbrella.
- Cut some raindrops out of the blue foam.
- Glue the pieces of the umbrella together.
