Who doesn't just love "Where the Wild Things Are"? This is a wonderful book to bring a good dose of art. Just watch the story come alive in your classroom. . .


IDEA #1:  Wild Things Cardboard Tube Puppets

IDEA #2:  Have a Wild Rumpus! Make Costumes!
This is such a fun thing to do!  I did only once but wow! It was the best to have 24 kids going for the wild rumpus!  (Okay - so it is an insane idea but fun. . .).

This is so cute!  Another choice for making costumes for that rumpus!
You could use construction paper instead of yarn as well.
