Willie Wolf
by Helen Cowles LeCron
Willie Wolf will gulp
his food,
Though his mother calls him
rude,
Though his brother hides his
eyes,
And his sister almost cries.
('Course she knows that cry-
ing's silly,
But she's so ashamed of
Willie!)
Oh, the dreadful bites he
takes
When he's eating pies and
cakes!
I should hate to have to see
him,
But I'd hate far worse to be
him!

The Gingerbread Boy
Puzzle-Find The Fox
by Helen Hudson
The little old woman, and little old man
Follow Gingerbread Boy as fast as they can,
But he quickly eludes them as onward he hurries;
And cat, dog and pig and a hen hen then worries.
But alas, for our boastful and bold little friend!
With wiley old fox he soon meets his end!
If with your sharp eyes you search over this sheet
Old Reynard himself you will very soon meet.
Peterkin Puppy
by Helen Cowles LeCron
Peterkin Puppy just lived in a
hurry!
Petterkin Puppy could never sit still!
He'd rush through the house in a terrible
flurry,
And, oh, all the dishes he'd break and
he'd spill!
He'd race by the vases and set them to
rocking,-
He'd rush through the kitchen and
tumble upstairs,-
He'd brush past the table (oh, wasn't it
shocking?)
And scatter the books and tip over the
chairs!
"Hurricane Peter," the neighbors all
called him,
"hurricane Peter," he's called to this
day!
Shouldn't you think that the name would
have tamed him?
Puppies should always take care when
they play!
Little Charlie Chipmunk
by Helen Cowles LeCron
Little Charlie Chipmunk
was a talker. Mercy me!
He chattered after breakfast and
he chattered after tea!
He chattered to his father and he
chattered to his mother!
He chattered to his sister and he
chattered to his brother!
He chattered till his family was
almost driven wild!
Oh, little Charley Chipmunk was
a very tiresome child!

With her flowers fair
Revels in her freedom
And sweet mountain air.
Faithful goat-heard Peter
Now is watching near;
If you search this picture
You will see him - here.

3 Good Cheers!
Three good cheers for old December!
Month of Christmas trees and toys,
Hanging up a million stockings,
For a million girls and boys,
O, dear December, hurry on.
Oh! please---oh, please come quick;
Bring snow so white.
Bring fires so bright,
And bring us good Saint Nick.
Progressive drawings are for beginners. Exercises like these teach more than fun! Young students learn that shapes make up larger drawings or can be found inside of larger drawings. They also learn to take directions, to watch and be patient and to solve problems through a series of smaller steps.

| Santa Claus is so round and jolly. Make him a part of a larger drawing so that students may expand their thinking. Encourage them to add more details to their drawings and to color in the spaces as they like! |
