Wubbzy’s Paper Plate Dinosaur

Activities, Arts&Crafts | By iWubbzy | January 30, 2013

Dinosaurs have been extinct a long time on earth. Don’t you wish you lived in Wuzzleburg and could take a trip to Dino Island? Wubbzy, Walden, Widget and Daizy really like visiting their dino friends there, and sometimes they’ll share a cupcake or two with them!

Dinosaurs are fascinating, not only to Wubbzy. Lots of kids are really into dinosaurs and paleontology. It’s amazing when kids suddenly start talking about Parasaurolophus and Triceratops…Such big words! In the world of Wubbzy the dinosaurs are friendly and super kooky, with names like Sillyasaurus and Pointybeakadon.

If your child loves dinosaurs, Wubbzy has a fun and easy activitythat kids and adults can do together. In this fun art project involving mainly household items (see the full list of materials and the instructions on the printout below). Now, you can make your very own dinosaur! Then you can give it a silly made-up name!

Have fun making your very own dinosaur, and you can create a different shape for the head or body to make an original Dino Island inhabitant. Your dinosaur has a pocket to hold papers, stickers or cards. Hang it on the fridge to store coupons!

When you are finished making your very own dinosaur, you and your little dinosaur lover should cuddle up and enjoy the story of Wubbzy's visit to Dino Island on your tablet or smartphone. "Wubbzy's Dinosaur Adventure" is a fun and interactive storybook app that will charm dinosaur lovers of all ages. Roaaaar!

Wubbzy’s Soapy Snowman Project!

Activities, Arts&Crafts | By iWubbzy | December 21, 2012

It’s Wintertime in Wuzzleburg!

Wubbzy and his friends love, love, love making snowmen, but what do you do when there is not enough snow outside? You can make a snowman in the warmth of your own home out of soapy soap! When you’re done with the project, the soapy snowy snowman can be used to decorate your bathroom for winter, is a fantastic gift, or can make bath time more fun! Making snowmen is a super fun holiday activity, and thanks to our friends at the South Bend Museum of Art this Wubbtastic idea is perfect for everyone!

What else does Wubbzy like to do this time of year? Wubbzy loves to wrap presents, dress up the Wuzzle-Tree and spend time with his friends in Wuzzleburg. Wubbzy, Widget, Walden and Daizy love to go sleddy sledding down the Hills of Wuzzle, after which they drink hot chocolate by a toasty warm fireplace. What fun!

Wubbzy’s Penguin Footprint Project

Activities, Arts&Crafts | By iWubbzy | December 14, 2012

Wubbzy and his friends love making decorations and crafts to celebrate the holidays and keep warm when the weather outside is cold. Kids will love this fun artey art project from Come Together Kids. Using regular household materials you can follow the simple instructions and add in a little of your own creativity to make a penguin footprint masterpiece! This project was a hit with Wubbzy and all of his friends. The penguins of Wuzzleburg loved it too!

Have your child trace his or her feet onto black construction paper, or for some messy fun, you can paint the bottom of their feet with black craft paint, and make a footprint directly onto paper. From there, the project is all about creativity and giving each penguin its own personality.

When you are done, display your festive winter artwork at home to celebrate the season! What an adorable way to decorate! Wubbzy suggests putting your art over the fireplace and having a cup of chocolatey cocoa while you admire your work. If you are looking for something to read while you keep warm by the holiday yule log, check out Wubbzy’s The Night Before Christmas, available now!

It’s lots of fun to stay inside when it’s cold and snowy out, but there are lots of fun things to do outside too! Wubbzy and his friends can’t stay inside all winter! Wubbzy loves to skate on the frozen ice, sled down the snowy hilly Hills of Wuzzle, and build snowey snowmen! Winter is a time for snow angels, snowball fights and skiing across the frozen ground. But because its so coldey cold outside, winter is a time to bundley bundle! Winter is a time for hats, scarves, snow-pants, and snowshoes. So before Wubbzy goes out to play, he’s got to gear up for the coldey cold weather! Help Wubbzy warm his fingery fingers and toesey toes. In this activity you can help Wubbzy dress for winter.

Print out this fun activity and color in Wubbzy and his winter accessories with markers or crayons. Cut out Wubbzy, and each item of clothing that you want to dress him in. Then dress Wubbzy with his winter warmers using glue or tape! Take Wubbzy’s advice this winter and avoid the chilly chills! Dress warmly before you go out and play…

Wubbzy loves poems too, and here is one of his favorite poems about the season:
Autumn in Wuzzleburg

Adapted by Ali Marchese

Wubbzy loves fall!
Appley apples and cidery cider.
Even a creepy crawly spider.
It’s pumpkins in binny bins.
Doggies with burrs on their chinny chin chins.
The wind is blowing leaves.
Chilly tails and chilly knees.
Doodleberries on the ground.
Hikes and crispy crinkly sounds.
Leaves with colors turning.
Smokey bonfires burning.
Fluffy clouds in the Wuzzleburg sky.
It’s fally fall. Wow! Wow! Wow!
That’s why Wubbzy loves watching the seasons go by.

What is your favorite thing about Autumn? Wubbzy loves jumping in leaf piles. Try going outside and making a giant leaf pile, then jumpity jump in! What fun, fun, fun!

Wubbzy Says Be a Great Friend to Everyone

Home | By iWubbzy | October 03, 2012

Wubbzy and his friends love everybody!

October is National Bullying Prevention Month, and groups across the United States will be talking about why it’s so important to think about what it takes to be a good friend and think about other people’s feelings. Wubbzy , Walden, Widget and Daizy are taking a stand to end bullying everywhere. Always remember that friends are Wubbtastic!

Be more than a bystander, it’s time to STOP all types of bullying. The end of bullying begins with you and how you treat others. Speak up when you see bullying and tell an adult, take some time to help friends who may need you to listen, love people for who they are, and always tell mommy, daddy or an adult how you feel. Adults can help you prevent bullying behavior in schools and your community and can even respond quickly to stop cyber bullying, helping to keep kids, just like you, safe and sound.

Know that you are perfect just the way you are and that kids can help kids. You can reach out and be a helpful friend to someone who is being hurt. Unite against bullying. Be a hero. Know that you CAN always make a difference. There is a wealth of resources available to empower, educate and support those who want to end bullying.

Here is information for grown-ups who encounter bullying:

Intervene immediately. It is ok for an adult to help.
Separate the kids involved.
Make sure everyone is safe.
Meet any immediate medical or mental health needs.
Stay calm. Reassure the kids involved, including bystanders.
Model respectful behavior when you intervene.

Wubbzy Gets Caught Reading!

Home, Wubbzy Says | By iWubbzy | October 02, 2012

Wubbzy is reading!

National Book Month is a good time to think about how much fun reading can be. You can take a journey to a play you never imagined existed or experience a great adventure. Wubbzy and his friends love to go to the library to discover new books. In fact, they recently found a book about pirates and it had a map hidden inside! You never know what you’ll discover inside of a book!

Make reading part of your life and start your own library of favorite books. Wubbzy’s friend Walden has a big library in his home and reading is one of his favorite activities. Walden especially likes to read about science and art , and he learns about everything through his great collection of library books.
