Sleigh-Pulling Activity Prompts
The activity prompts in If Sheep Pulled the Sleigh get children moving like every animal Santa imagines. Walkers count sleeping sheep so Santa doesn’t wake, bleat and gallop like goats, leap like frogs, and take big ostrich steps.
About the Author
Bill Barnsley has always enjoyed spinning tall tales, especially for children who live in a world of imagination and pretend. He grew up in a military family, cared for his children, and became a writer, storyteller, coach, scout leader, and teacher. Recently, those stories have been about elves, reindeer, and cookies. Jude, his constant companion (and sparkle), brings joy to everything he does. If Sheep Pulled the Sleigh is the sequel to his If Mice Pulled the Sleigh.
