Objectives:
To introduce the children to Abraham Lincoln.
To tie his log cabin into the lesson.
Materials:
1 small milk carton for each child
Enough containers of rich chocolate frosting to cover each house
Skinny pretzel logs (short
Small plastic plates
Glue Gun
Plastic knives
Plan: - Glue a milk carton onto each plate with the glue gun.
- Give each child a plastic knife (after a discussion on how to use them).
- Let them spread frosting all over containers.
- Put pretzel logs on frosting sideways so that they look like logs.
Comments:
The children love doing this project. You wouldn't believe how much frosting "accidentally" gets on their fingers. This project is also absolutely adorable to watch.
