this article (and most) on primary playground, does contain affiliate links that we do earn a commission off of.  clicking these links does not cost you any extra but helps our website to keep great articles and freebies like this coming your way.

Today we’re our Literacy Snack Koala Read Aloud is based on trying new things that may be scary. The book we are reading this week is The Koala Who Could, by Rachel Bright.

“Kevin the koala loves every day to be the same, where it’s snug and safe. But when change comes along, will Kevin embrace all the joys that come with trying something new?”

This is such a cute book about being brave and getting out of your shell. It helps your little learners see value in trying something new that may seem scary at first. Another great book to add to your collection for the beginning of the school year.

For our snack this week to go along with the book, we’ll be making Kevin the Koala.

ingredients

each student will need

2 Ritz crackers

1/2 of a grape

A small piece of sliced cheese

2 candy eyes

1 piece of bread

You will also need a 2 inch round cookie cutter and a piping tip to share as a class.

Assemble

To make Kevin the Koala, first have the students share the cookie cutter to cut out a circle in their piece of bread to make the head. Place the Ritz crackers slightly underneath the piece of bread on both sides to make his ears.

Next, have your students share the piping tip to create part of his eyes out of the small piece of sliced cheese. Use the piping tips large opening at a circle cutter. You may need a knife to help get the cheese to come out depending on the type you use. Have the students place the cheese on the bread and then top it with the candy eyes. Lastly, have them place on the 1/2 grape as his nose.
