A NOTE TO PARENTS AND TEACHERS
The fun continues after the story is finished! As part of the Dragonfly Difference, we've included two pages of activities inspired by this story. We hope you'll enjoy them with a child after reading this Dragonfly Book.
Dragonfly's Feather Fun
Tico is granted a shimmering pair of golden wings. You can make your own beautiful golden feather with just a few supplies.
You'll need:
-- some old newspapers
-- yellow construction paper
-- scissors
-- glue
-- gold glitter
1. Spread the newspapers over your work area. This could get messy!
2. Have an adult help you cut a long feather shape out of the yellow paper.
3. Carefully cut little slits all along the edges of your feather with an adult's help.
4. Have an adult help you pour a little glue onto your feather. Then carefully sprinkle gold glitter over the glue. Shake off the extra glitter onto the newspapers.
5. Hang your golden feather in a special place for everyone to see!
Dragonfly's Helping Hand
You may not have golden wings, but you can still help other people! You might:
-- Clean your room without being asked.
-- Draw a picture for someone who lives far away.
-- Tell a story to a younger sibling or friend.
