One day they start and argument: the one monster says that “day is departing” and the other monster says that “night is arriving” – who is right (both of course), but it takes a rock throwing fight that destroys the mountain for them to realise this! Great story about seeing things differently and reconciliation! The Craft They talk to each other through a hole that runs the length of the mountain. It is about two monsters, sitting on either side of a mountain. It is great right now for Red Ted (aged 3), as he is starting to appreciate the subtlies of a difference of opinion. ONLY of course do this bedtime ritual if you have child that is already scared, don’t do it with perfectly happy ones, as that may just start an anxiety!!

We then took some cardstock and drew our outlines, remembering to make our limbs big enough to accommodate the brads that would hold everything together. ![]() We got the idea to make our paper dolls into monsters from Katrina Rodabaugh's fun book, " The Paper Playhouse: Awesome Art Projects for Kids Using Paper, Boxes and Books." (Although ours, admittedly, are much scarier than her well-dressed bunny monster.)ĭesigned as a drop-in after-school program that was part of our Crafternoon series, we hoped to enhance the literacy skills of school-aged patrons by offering them some free crafting and storytelling fun.įirst, we brainstormed what sort of creatures we might like to make. It wasn't until the 19th century that the dolls were mass-manufactured by large companies and marketed toward girls and young women. Hand-painted paper dolls with clothes were also made for wealthy adults to show the latest fashions. Our paper dolls were modeled after the traditional jointed paper dolls from 18th-century France called "pantins." They were made for adults and often used to satirize nobility.
