Once upon a time, there was a happy frog named Froggy. Froggy loved to go on adventures, and one day, he decided to visit his friend, Miss Mousie. He hopped on his little bike, with a ring and some pretty flowers by his side. He was so excited, uh-huh!
Froggy rode all the way to Miss Mousie’s house. He had been there many times before, and he was always happy to see her. When he arrived, he knocked on her door and asked, “Miss Mouse, will you marry me?” Miss Mousie smiled and said, “Uh-huh!”
They decided to have a big party to celebrate. “Where will the party be?” they wondered. They chose a cozy spot inside a hollow tree, where all their friends could join them, uh-huh!
The first friend to arrive was a little white moth. The moth was so excited that it accidentally made a tiny hole in the tablecloth, uh-huh! Next came a bumblebee, who played a happy tune on his fiddle. A little flea joined in and danced a funny jig with the bumblebee, uh-huh!
Then came Missus Cow. She wanted to dance too, but she wasn’t quite sure how. Everyone laughed and had fun, uh-huh!
Mister Frog wore his best green suit, and Miss Mouse looked just like a queen. Then, Parson Rook, a wise old bird, walked in slowly with a book under his wing. He was there to help Froggy and Miss Mousie celebrate their special day, uh-huh!
All their friends gathered around, singing and dancing with joy. It was a wonderful day filled with laughter and happiness, uh-huh!
And that’s the story of Froggy’s fun adventure. The end!
Froggy’s Adventure Map: Create a simple map of Froggy’s journey to Miss Mousie’s house. Use crayons or markers to draw the path Froggy took on his bike. Include landmarks like trees, flowers, and maybe a little pond. Encourage the children to think about what Froggy might have seen along the way. Ask them, “What other animals or things do you think Froggy might have seen on his adventure?”
Animal Dance Party: Recreate the wedding party scene by having an animal dance party in the classroom. Assign each child an animal from the story, like the moth, bumblebee, or cow. Play some music and let the children dance like their assigned animal. Ask them, “How would a bumblebee dance? How about a cow?” This helps them explore movement and creativity.
Flower Craft: Froggy brought flowers to Miss Mousie. Have the children make their own paper flowers using colored paper, scissors, and glue. Discuss with them why flowers might be a nice gift. Ask, “What kind of flowers do you think Froggy brought? Why do you think flowers make people happy?” This activity encourages fine motor skills and thoughtfulness.
