Happy Ground Hog Day Madlib

My kids love madlibs, and as a homeschool parent I came up with the idea of a Groundhog day madlib! You can use it if you want. I simply found a Groundhog Day poem for little kids and turned into something fun for tween boys!

The orginal poem by Barbara Walker

There are shadows you make in the sunshine,


There are shadows you make by the lamp,

There are shadows that lurk in the forest

While you tell creepy stories at camp.

There are shadows that help you with puppets,

And shadows; you make just for play,

But the shadow that's famous is Groundhog's,

When he tells whether winter's to stay.

Let's go out very early this morning

And watch for his shadow, my son;

It may not be at all scientific,

But you've got to admit that it's fun!
