This is probably one of my favorite stories to tell to our kids, mostly because it is just so absurd! I mean, an old lady swallows a fly, that I can believe. But a whole horse?! Crazy.
Despite the breaches in logic, our kids love this story just as much as we do. They feeding the old lady lots of bizarre animals…
Then we get to go to our light tables and teach her how to eat right!
First we make the old lady out of kinetic sand and colored pasta.
Then we look inside her mouth and see…. flies!!!
Oh no! What should we do? Quick! Let’s trap the flies!
Phew! They’re all gone! Now we can teach the old lady how to enjoy some real food, like yummy grapes and sand cakes!
I’m so glad I got to share these games with you guys. Tell us how you play with “There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly!” in the comments below!
