Groundhogs Day Activity

Happy Groundhog’s Day

Yesterday was Groundhog’s Day! Groundhog’s Day is a celebration in Pennsylvania where the groundhog, Punxsutawney Phil, determines whether spring will come early or we will have six (6) more weeks of winter.

Around 7:25am, Phil saw his shadow and predicted six more weeks of winter. So, brace yourself for more time in your coats.

To celebrate, we created an activity for our little friends to participate in to show how Phil saw his shadow and made his prediction. Our friends were given small groundhogs to color, a black sheet of paper, some tape and chalk. They started coloring their groundhogs, then we taped them to the black paper and used the chalk to create the shadow.


This was such a fun activity, and our friends were even more overjoyed that our Director, Ms. Michele, join in one this activity. They all turned out great.
