Re: [LM_NET] Target: Hans Christian Andersen Activities

[Cindy Rider <CRIDER@VIGO.LIB.IN.US>]

I did a Hans Christian Andersen program for 3-8 yr olds to celebrate his birthday 
last year.  I have several files I can send in addition to these notes.  Just email 
me off-list and I will send.  If you use the Princess and the Pea Reader's Theatre, 
please give credit to me and to my source.  Thanks!

Games:  
Mermaid, Mermaid, Sea Monster! (like Duck, Duck, Goose) (Even my TEENAGERS like to 
play this!)
"The Ugly Duckling Says" (like "Simon Says")  

Crafts:
The Princess and the Pea
Materials:  
* Newspaper to cover tables
* White paper, 8-1/2 x 11" with drawing of princess printed at the top and bed 
frame at the bottom.  
* Pre-cut strips of construction paper and paper from wallpaper sample book, 
1/2-3/4" x 4-1/2"  
* Dried split peas (purchased; $ .50)
* Glue sticks 
* Crayons

Instructions:
1. Color the bed frame and the princess.
2. Glue a dried split pea just above the footboard on the bed. 
3. Glue a strip of paper over it.
4. Glue strips of paper all the way up to the princess.  

Ugly Duckling-related Craft: "This is Me Today" and "This is Me When I Was Little" 
(child draws the appropriate pictures of him/herself)

Anyone have any Hans Christian Anderson activities, website, or library
lessons.  I understand it is his 200th birthday in April.  I have 3rd
grade teachers asking for ideas.

Thanks
