Process:
Part I: Bunny Peep in Disguise
Everyone loves to eat Peep Marshmallows. Help them not get eaten by making a disguise for them. Trace the Peep to get the outline. Then let the creativity begin.
Once done, write a story about your peep and why you chose that disguise. Peep’s new name? Lives? Who hiding from? favorite food? friends? Endless possibilities for your story.
If child is too young to write, have an adult write the story down as they are telling it.
Part II: Experiments Handout
The activities will need to be parent or teacher lead. Have all of the supplies ready before you begin. You can do all of the activities, or only the ones that would interest your child/children. No need to write the answers down on the handout. Answers should be all verbal from child to parent/teacher.
Here are some cute coloring pages of bunny and peep marshmallows.
