Snow globe {By Briana}
My Snow globe is pretty,
And fun to shake,
Shake it up
And watch it glisten
Shake it up
And watch it snow
Shake it up
And watch it glow
My Snow globe is pretty
And I love it so!

*Stallone Tested and Approved: {We are so lucky to have Stallone, Annie’s son, test out all of our lessons that we create for you. We want the lessons to be enjoyable for children, so after each lesson we will post how Stallone did with the lesson in italics under the title, Stallone Tested and Approved}:
Stallone loved making his snow globe. He got to choose his toy that he wanted to put inside, and he chose his "Backyardigan" toy. Stallone loved shaking the snow globe and watching the glitter fall. He learned the word snow globe and kept saying it during the lesson. This is a really fun activity that Stallone approved!
