April 22 is Earth Day. In celebration of it, we had a Going Green themed for preschool storytime. While I did find many books on the green lifestyle, I wasn't finding many fingerplays and songs that I felt the children would enjoy. So I shared the books on my handout and as a display in the room, and instead did a frog themed program.

When I was looking for a craft, I came across several using paper plates. Doing those would require lots of coloring or painting, or having green plates. I didn't want to do that, since I can have a fairly large group of preschoolers. Instead I decided to make my own template in MS Publisher and copy it onto various shades of green paper.

Please note, to view the files, you will need a version of Adobe Acrobat Reader (get it free here).
Here is my sample, along with all of the curled tongues, dotted eyes, and copied templates.
