I don’t know if you know, but I’m kind of obsessed with reindeer! I mean they are so adorable! I can’t believe I haven’t shared a reindeer read-aloud yet! So today we are reading, The Littestly Reindeer by Brandi Dougherty.

In the book, Dot is the littlest reindeer. More than anything, she wanted to help fly Santa’s sleigh. She practices but she is disappointed that she is just too little to fly. Her friend Oliver suggests they do things that she can do and realizes it’s a lot! In the end, Dot does end up helping Santa in a special way.

So to go along with our reindeer rad-aloud today, for our snack, we are making our own little reindeer!

Snack idea

Ingredients – each student needs

1 Nilla Wafer

1 butterscotch chip

4 pretzel sticks

2 candy eyes

To Assemble

Have the students start with the Nilla Wafer. Place 2 of the pretzel sticks on top of his head as his antlers. Break the remaining 2 pretzel sticks into pieces to create the rest of the antlers. Add on the candy eyes and the butterscotch chip as her nose. If you read Ruldomph or another book, you could use a red M&M instead for the nose. In the book, Dot has a cute little butterscotch chose though. Isn’t she cute?!

Free Printable

While your students are enjoying their reindeer snack, I made a free printable for them to work on. They get to reflect back on thee book on how they think Dot felt when she was struggling to fly. They will then draw a picture of something that Dot was good at. And last, they’ll draw a picture of something good that happened at the end of the story. A great lesson in growth mindset!

Today's read-aloud is Bear Snores On. One by one, a whole host of different animals and birds find their way out of the cold and into Bear’s cave to warm up. But even after the tea has been brewed and the corn has been popped, Bear just snores on!
See what happens when he finally wakes up and finds his cave full of uninvited guests — all of them having a party without him! This is a great book to read to go along with your hibernation unit.
