Pete the Cat

Last week we had our Fall Festival and Character Literacy Day. My team and I decided to dresses up as "Pete the Cat" for both events and the kids loved it! As you know I love to make cute stuff, so I was in charge of Pete's shoes. I drew a template of his shoes and made six colorful pairs out of poster board. 

I used poster board, hot glue and hole puncher for the shoe laces.

It was super easy to make. If you want to make these cute shoes, you can find the template {HERE}


"Pete the Cat" is not translated to Spanish yet, but that was not an excuse to make a cute and meaningful lesson for my Spanish speakers. After we read the story, we identified all the nouns we found in the story and it was perfect to review our lesson about "Sustantivos".







You can find this fun activity in English & Spanish HERE!
Next week we will keep learning about nouns. I will make some fun activities with pumpkins, and I will post pictures soon!

To finish my weekend, I made this cute table decoration for a baby shower. What do you think?


Visit and like my Facebook page for more activities and pics!
Have a great week!

  2. I love this! I'm an early childhood librarian and definitely need to be more crafty. And I LOVE Pete the Cat! I found you because I Googled "Pete the Cat in Spanish" or something similar. I would love to see your template for the Pete the Cat shoes (I wound up ordering ProKeds from Amazon for our storybook literacy celebration, LOL.). I'll also check out your TPT store.
