Over in the Meadow

Finally!  I have been trying to make a new Over in the Meadow felt set for at least a year.  I think I was overwhelmed with the number of pieces--I had planned to make the accompanying scenery like sand, tree, beehive, etc.  But when I gave myself permission to just do the animal babies and their grown ups, it all came together :)

My animals are as cute as I could make them ;) My eyeballs are cut using a die cuts--no way can I make my circles that neat with a pair or scissors!

Here's a video of these guys in action:

You can get more details and buy these cuties here.

I love this song so much--I have four versions of the book in my classroom--not even including the Over in the Garden, Arctic, Jungle and Ocean versions!  

Here are links to my favorite Over in the Meadow books:

Over in the Meadow  Absolutely love the cd that goes with this one!

Over in the Meadow  Why do Jane Cabrera books go out of print??

Over in the Meadow  Our copy of this is a Big Book

Over in the Meadow  This is nice for one-one-one, but the illustrations are not good for group story times
