If you read my last blog, you know that a fox family made its home in our neighbors' backyard, which in turn spurred me on to plan a fox-themed family fun night. What a fun night it turned out to be!
The fun began by reading the Aesop's fable of "The Fox and the Grapes," and then enjoying a meal to compliment the story. I made a pancake that looked like a fox: a round pancake, banana slices for the snout (held together by peanut butter), a grape nose (glued on with more peanut butter), dried cherry eyes, and all-natural fruit flats cut into triangles for the ears.
Five year old Stephen took one look at my fox creation, and was suddenly inspired to pretend to be a fox. (Can you almost hear the growl when you look at this picture?)
