Groundhog's Day Craft

Happy Groundhog’s Day

Today is 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.

This morning, Phil emerged from his burrow and saw his shadow. So to celebrate, our friends did a craft we created Phil seeing his shadow.

We gave them 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.

They had so much fun and were so happy to do this. Not sure how happy they are for six more weeks of winter though.
