Storybook Parade

On Halloween, the Kindergartners at our school do a Storybook Parade around campus. Each class chooses a different book and dresses up to match the characters or theme of the book. Then we form a long line and wind through all the classes in the school. See below to see the book our class chose - other classes included: The Wizard of Oz, Stripe, Splat the Cat, The Grouchy Ladybug, Go Dog Go, Elmer, Stellaluna, Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and Cowboy Bunnies.

This year, our class chose the book Rhyming Dust Bunnies by Jan Thomas. The book is a very cute and fun book about some dust bunnies that like to rhyme - and one dust bunny that is more concerned about the vacuum cleaner that's about to get them. I dressed as the blue (non-rhyming) dust bunny and the students got to choose between red, green and purple. They wore that color shirt and made a funny hat that matched. They also chose a set of rhyming words that I printed in matching color ink on label paper and stuck to their front and back.

Then we got in line with the other Kindergarten classes and walked around the school. They had a blast! And the teachers and students in the other grades seemed to enjoy watching us. The dust bunnies were a big hit!
