A Story For Tu B’Shevat – Our Tree Named Steve

Happy Tu B’Shevat!  It is such a joy to celebrate and honour trees.  Our story today is ‘Our Tree Named Steve’ by Alan Zweibel and David Catrow.

 

 

Activity:  Make a Steve!

This lovely and simple craft uses just a paper towel roll and some cardboard and paint.  Make sure to give your tree lots of personality… I recommend adding lots of colour, pompoms, and maybe even some Googly eyes!
