My daughter and I have become somewhat preoccupied with black cats since our crafty experience last week. It doesn't help that the shops here are filling up with Halloween bits and pieces...everywhere we go we are seeing cats, and witches and pumpkins....
With a bit of a clean-up, we turned one of my daughter's cat drawings (at another post I will tell you about her rapidly developing drawing skills) into a black cat craft!
She drew this and I made it into a template for you! You can make a black cat with a long twisty tail to hang as a mobile from the ceiling.
We'd love to share it with you from Google Drive: Black Cat Twisty Tail Craft
We have also just moved our two bookcases full of children's books downstairs (it is scary just to see how many I have collected over my teaching years). My daughter keeps finding books about cats and it seems it is her latest obsession emerging interest - to find as many cat books as possible!
