Groundhog Day Activities
OK, I admit it….I like Groundhog Day. I like it, not only because it is my husband’s favorite movie (gotta love Bill Murray), but also because Phil is just plain cute. It’s a fun holiday tradition and a great way to work in a lesson or two about predictions!

Click here to find the freebie pack!
Included in the Groundhog Day Activities freebie is the template for the headband craft, a class prediction graph, Groundhog Info Page, and a prediction fill in the blank page.
We always watch the live version of the Phil coming out of his den to make his prediction. But be careful, if you tune in too early you might hear a word or two that your kinders shouldn’t! lol The tradition of watching his prediction is always fun and the kids love it!

I LOVE your *freebie*! Thank you so much! Groundhog's Day is one of my favorite holidays because nothing is cuter than knocking on Phil's door and pulling him out! I have a Phil t-shirt too!
We seriously do enough activities to last about 3 days so this is wonderful!

Jennifer, I am your latest follower! I just found this book in a Scholastic magazine ("Who Will See Their Shadows This Year" by Jerry Pallotta), and since you're talking about Groundhog Day I thought you might like it. I also have several freebies for Valentine's Day on my blog, if you want to take a look.
Have a great day!
