Guest Posted November 3, 2006 Posted November 3, 2006 There's no such thing as a dragon is one of our favourites. What about making a dragon using old CDs for scales if you can get hold of some. Linda

Linda The free internet CDs at the sumermarket checkout We made a huge dragon from tubes made from painted wallpaper and hung it from the ceiling so it looked as if it was flying. It created lots of interaction/role play etc
Deb Posted November 3, 2006 Posted November 3, 2006 On this forum there was a link to a great website which I cannot remember, but it has a song about dragons and a booklet for telling the rhyme, can anyone remember it? 5 little dragons went out to play over the hills and far away Mother dragon said it's time for your snack but only 4 little dragons came back. 4, 3, 2 and 1 etc Final verse Mother Dragon began to breathe fire but the tears she cried made the fire expire Mother Dragon said, it's a very good snack and all of the 5 little dragons came back.
