Print all three pages single-sided on US Letter paper in portrait using Fit to printable area. Check one page before printing the rest. Preparation instructions are included on the first page.
The adult cuts out the old lady’s face and mouth opening, then tapes or glues the face flat onto the top of an empty tissue box, aligning the mouth with the tissue opening and trimming away any cardboard underneath. Prepare the leaves, scarecrow and story-object cutouts before the session. Laminate the pieces for repeated play, then invite the child to feed matching pieces through the mouth as you read together.
These activities are prepared by the SLP before the session; children do not cut out the pieces. Use paper or cardstock and cut out all pieces. We recommend laminating the cutouts for added durability and long-lasting, repeated use. Glue Velcro (hook-and-loop fasteners) to the pieces and corresponding attachment points, rather than gluing the pieces together. Let the glue dry fully so the child can attach, remove and reattach the pieces during supervised sessions.
