Here are some super ideas for crafts and activities to go with the children's book, If You Give a Mouse a Cookie. They could also be used with a mouse them or a cookies & milk theme.
One of the things teachers, homeschoolers and daycare workers can do is create a literacy bag. These can be sent home with the kids. Inside would be all kinds of wonderful things to do and a copy of the book.
