You’ll Need
* Thin Twigs
* Fine Craft Wire
* Dried Flowers
* Glue-gun & Glue
* Ribbon
Directions:
Use one large twig to form a circle and tie it together with some of the craft wire. This will be your form for the wreath. Cut the twigs to roughly 20 inches.
Assemble a few twigs and, using the circle as a form, bend and wire the twigs around the form. Place the next few twigs to overlap the cut ends of the previous bunch, bending and wiring them as before. Continue until the entire circular form is covered with twigs.
Add some hot glue to the stems of the dried flowers and tuck them into your wreath all the way around.
Add the ribbon to hang your new flower and twig wreath.

You’ll Need
* 3 single serving milk-cartons (clean)
* Construction Paper
* Small Twigs
* Spaghetti (uncooked)
* Glue
* Scissors
* Marker
Directions:
Your child will recreate each of the three houses of the little pigs. Start by cutting a door into each of the milk cartons. Glue spaghetti all over the first house to make it look like a straw house. Repeat with the twigs for the second house. Cover the third house in red construction paper and outline small squares with a black marker to make it look like red bricks.
You can cut out three pig shapes and a wolf from construction paper or use little plastic animals to let your child reenact the story.
Alternatively you could draw a simple house shape each on 3 pieces of paper and let your child glue the spaghetti, twigs and construction paper bricks on it.
