I’m Stuck in My Hole | Read Aloud
Support Materials
Grownups – Here are some fun activities to engage your little learners even further:
Just like the animals in the story built a chain to help pull their friend mole out of his hole, now we’re going to make our own chain full of kind things we can do each day.
- Cut 30 strips of paper, one for each day of the month.
- Write one kind thing you can do on each strip, and then join the strips together to make a chain, with the writing on the inside.
- Tear off one strip per day and do the good deed that is written on the inside to spread kindness in your neighborhood!
Print out a Kindness Bingo card and see if you can complete the whole thing!
