Fingerplay
Pause when you read
about Thumbelina’s
size. Look together at
your thumbs and talk
together about a little
girl that small. Have a
conversation between
thumbs!

“What a beautiful plant,” said the woman, and she gently kissed
the flower. When she did, the petals opened wide. There, in the
middle of the flower, sat a tiny little girl, no bigger than my thumb.
The woman gasped with delight. ”What a sweet child you are,”
she said. “I will call you Thumbelina.”
