Post at Pooh Corner: Links to Christopher Robin's Friends!

      Winnie-the-Pooh, also called Pooh Bear, is a fictional anthropomorphic bear created by A. A. Milne. The first collection of stories about the character was the book Winnie-the-Pooh (1926), and this was followed by The House at Pooh Corner (1928). Milne also included a poem about the bear in the children’s verse book When We Were Very Young (1924) and many more in Now We Are Six (1927). All four volumes were illustrated by E. H. Shepard.

    Spring Kite Ideas for Classroom Teachers

           Kites are not only interesting playthings, but they were also once used in meteorological observations, in carrying messages, in photographing landscapes and, to a considerable extent - in advertising. Even today, it is not uncommon to see over a large outdoor assembly, a number of kites bearing advertising banners on their strings.
           Kites have been known since earliest times and in certain countries are still a very popular amusement among children and hobbyists. In Japan kites strong enough to lift a man were made over 600 years ago, in order to spy out the force of an enemy in times of war. Not only the youths of Japan but the adults, also, enter into kite-flying with great zest, and some of the kites themselves are beautiful and elaborate productions, decorated with the highest art. In China the kite-flier often has a number of kites in the air at once, all attached to a common string, and the greatest skill and patience are necessary to keep them separate or disentangle them when they have been blown together by a strong wind. Fish, butterflies, dragons and birds are imitated in kites by the skillful Chinese, and many of these peculiar forms have found their way into the hobby and toy stores of the United States.

         (I will be restoring and building a new kite index here during the month of September, 2024. Maintaining backlink indexes such as this one requires much time and effort. This listing has needed updating too often in my opinion . . . 
          Since the Covid-19 pandemic began in 2020, many folks have abandoned and/or neglected their webpages. 
           I thought some of you might be curious as to just how many changes have taken place over a brief interval of four years. So I will show my progress as I work to restore what has been lost. 
           There are more young students on the web than ever; if any webmasters are interested in helping to restore this topic for children, please upload materials to your webpages for them!)

    Today, I remove dead links... I have lost a total of 74 active links since the last update!

Instead, we received more than a few thousand. Packages arrived from schools, churches, scout troops and former patients. And the boxes just kept coming. We are sharing them here so you can get a glimpse at the smiles Valentines brought to patients and employees. It might just lift your spirits and remind you what this day is all about."

    100 Spooky Crafts & Treats For Halloween

    You needn't worry about using patterns for this Halloween craft
     because the even a novice artist can come up with their own charming
    version of this pumpkin patch!
          Spook your own set of  paper jack-o-lanterns with a little bit of glittery morning mist; all it takes is just a few simple supplies. Gather a pair of scissors, some white school glue, a black felt tipped pin and construction paper in orange, green, black and white, plus transparent glitter to craft a similar picture to the one shown here. 
          I chose to mount the jack-o-lanterns onto a large sheet of black construction paper. Then I cut a large number of lop sided circular shapes from the orange construction paper. Paste on black shaped openings for the large toothy grins and grimaces from additional black construction paper. Then cut and paste green stems and vines from the green construction paper. I painted my white construction paper with a pearlescent white paint before cutting it out to add eyes and teeth, but you could use just plain white paper if you'd prefer. I then added the details to these frightened pumpkins with a black felt tipped marker. Squeeze a wavy line or two of white glue onto  the surrounding dark sky and add the transparent glitter to finish off this spooky pumpkin patch, just in time for Halloween!

      100 Dr. Seuss Resources

            Theodor Seuss Geisel was an American writer, poet, and cartoonist most widely known for children's picture books written and illustrated as Dr. Seuss. He had used the pen name Dr. Theophrastus Seuss in college and later used Theo LeSieg, and once Rosetta Stone, as well as Dr. Seuss.
            Geisel published 46 children's books, often characterized by imaginative characters, rhyme, and frequent use of anapestic meter. His most celebrated books include the bestselling Green Eggs and Ham, The Cat in the Hat, The Lorax, One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish, Horton Hatches the Egg, Horton Hears a Who!, and How the Grinch Stole Christmas!.
             Numerous adaptations of his work have been created, including 11 television specials, four feature films, a Broadway musical and four television series. He won the Lewis Carroll Shelf Award in 1958 for Horton Hatches the Egg and again in 1961 for And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street. Geisel also worked as an illustrator for advertising campaigns, most notably for Flit and Standard Oil, and as a political cartoonist for PM, a New York City newspaper. During World War II, he worked in an animation department of the United States Army, where he wrote Design for Death, a film that later won the 1947 Academy Award for Documentary Feature.
