My kids loved the book! They loved being able to "guess" what the next animal would be to enter the mitten, and their favorite part was the end when the boy has one mitten that is HUGE! We then printed out the animals and mittens from the website. It made such an impression on them to do an activity at home along with the story. So much fun! Thanks for this great activity! Next time, we'll act it out ourselves! We went to the library and checked out The Mitten! My kids loved the book!

I love how you address that early literacy isn't just reading a book, but is comprehension and discussion. Looking forward to more posts from you here in the future. This is a great post.
