Paper fun

I filled the water table up with shredded paper and added some animals to it.  The children came over to see what was inside.

 "Where water?" asks one child.  She then finds an animal and starts walking it along the edges.

 This child picks up a tiger, drops it into the paper and starts making growling noises.

 This child is searching for an animal and when he finds it he says "bear"

                                                 "Yum, yum, yum yum. He's eating."

                                                  "We're flushing them down the toilet."

Throughout the day, the children would come back to the paper and invent a new story for the animals, such as hiding from each other, chasing one another or simply eating all the paper.
