Today we have a Building Challenge for you:
To build a safe, strong, beautiful castle for a stuffed animal or a small toy.
Last week I was unexpectedly in Michigan with my three grandchildren.
And they did not have school!
Owen and his 3 stuffed husky dogs were very sad.
But then we thought of a building challenge to make the huskies happy!
Owen and his sisters Anneke and Evie worked alone and together to create safe, strong, beautiful castles out of many different materials.
Can you spy the huskies in most of these pictures?
This fortress castle had a removable draw bridge
Do you see a draw bridge, knights, and crenellations?
A castle made of cans, guarded by brave husky knights.
Everyone helped to build this castle.
A castle made of M & C boxes.
Princess Anneke wore a royal cape while she worked.
Evie sat inside the castle walls and read a book to the huskies.
What will you use to build your castle: blocks, tissue boxes, Duplos, or something else?
Please have a family member take a photo of your structure and email it to Ms. Buckley so that we can all enjoy the safe, strong, beautiful castle
that you built for your stuffed animal or small toy.
