In the book, King Midas judged a musical contest between Apollo and Pan. Pan played a pipe of reeds and Apollo played a lyre. King Midas awarded Pan, even though he played horribly. So, for our craft, we made a lyre out of cardboard and yarn.

ReplyDeleteOooh, I never even thought of King Midas! Awesome choice!
ReplyDeleteThat is a fun story! I am sure you had some lovely music to go with your craft!
ReplyDeleteLove your son's drawing - so creative!
ReplyDeleteThat is a really cool looking harp. I really like the detail on your sons drawing too. What a fun way to learn about Greek Mythology.
ReplyDeleteJust chanced upon this book in the library. As both a morality tale, and a lead in to ancient Greece, it is a great story.
