The boys were actually excited about the outcome of the groundhog's venture out of his hole. We read
Groundhog Day by Gail Gibbons and
Gregory's Shadow by Don Freeman in anticipation of the big event. We have been studying hibernation and animals in winter, so it was a great tie-in. We celebrated the day by eating Chinese food for lunch and observing the lunar new year. We also packed another box of goodies for a soldier and sent it off, hopefully in time for Valentine's Day.
