How to Use
Read the rhyme together and invite children to join in. Attach a brick wall print to a bin or sturdy block and use Humpty to act out the story.
For the craft, children draw a face on their egg, cut it out, and tear it into two to four pieces. They arrange and glue the pieces onto cardstock, then add the title label and an adhesive bandage.
Keep the story going by adding the movable Humpty figures to your block center. Children can build walls, retell the rhyme, and imagine a new ending. Color and laminate the optional puzzle for repeated use.
