Paper Village

I've been wanting to print the little paper city for the kids to play with and yesterday I finally got it printed and cut out. Older kids could cut it out for themselves but my little group is too young to tackle this type of cutting.

I made each child a set and this morning I got it out for them to play with. One thing I did different than shown in the instructions was to glue the little people onto small popsicle sticks. I thought they would be easier for my gorup of kids to handle that way. I used regular printer paper but I'm sure that thicker paper would be even better.

But they had a lot of fun. I had crayons available for the to decorate their cities if the wanted too but left it up to them.














They had a lot of fun with this paper playset and I'm sure we'll be playing with them more and adding to them.
