The PlayBag Co retells The Gruffalo

World Book Day 2017

We had so much fun this World Book Day recreating the story of The Gruffalo with our finger puppets and soft toys.

This activity took me just over an hour to complete using just a webcam and Movie Maker programme. The animation used around 80 photos to get the effect and is a relatively simple project to recreate in your classroom.
