We love The Gruffalo! So we decided to have our own Gruffalo themed day.
We set about scene setting our story which would end in a sumptuous Gruffalo tea to reflect the story. Here’s how we did it…
We started with breakfast. The mouse found a nut and the nut was good.
After breakfast, we set about making the deep dark wood.
We made some Stickmen place settings for our dinner table.
I added a label to a tin of stewed fruit ready for the kids to make Gruffalo crumble.
We made a menu.
We washed out some bottles and made labels to serve our drinks in.
We painted hedgehog rocks to scene set the table.
We made Gruffalo crumble.
And a log pile house with buttercream icing and chocolate logs.
Our roasted fox was a simple chicken casserole. We made a cardboard surround cover for the casserole dish.
Finally, we were ready to scene set our table and put together our meal.
We had a fab Gruffalo feast! We spent the day doing Gruffalo activities, colouring and word searches and finished the day watching the DVD. The re-creation of our favourite book was a yummy and fun success!
