Red Riding Hood in the forest of Farrel McWhirter.

In order to create the world of fairy tales we decorated bags with stickers and pens and added a handle to make our bags into "baskets" -like the basket Red Riding Hood carried to grandma's house.  We then went to look for treasures to bring to grandma.  We found pinecones, leaves and even some hidden plastic eggs with stickers inside! (where did they come from ?)  Then we took our baskets on a hike and had our picnic by the stream where Maddie the Monkey and a Wolf puppet told the story of Red Riding Hood once more.  Picnicking under the trees, by a stream was truely a fairytale come true!
