When I was little, my mom always sang “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” by the Tokens, and that started my interest (from afar) of the lion. I recently made the connection, I was born in August which makes me a Leo, but while I love these huge cats, I am scared of their smaller, domesticated cousin, the house cat; I never really grew up with cats and raised dogs.
The Tokens song has been awakened in me again, by my husband who has been playing it for our kids, so there constant humming of the tune inspired an African craft theme today, enjoy the lion masks (in their favorite colors of course), and Kente weave tapestry.
For these and more great children crafts
