Story Prop: Teacher makes a colorful eye-catching
box, tied with ribbon, stars stuck to it and 15 pipe
cleaner pieces twisted around diff. places on the
ribbon.
Have the children recall parts
of the story by asking questions.......How many
locks does the magic box have?.........How many
stars?.......Where did the magic box come from? The
children can help count the stars on the box you
made, they can count the locks (pipe cleaner
pieces), and children can come up and untwist the
locks as you prepare to open the box.
When you lift the lid, have each child
come up , close their eyes and reach in to pull out
a surprise. (fill the box with small trinkets that
the children can take home with them.)
