Good morning! Here’s a random Saturday craft for you: the Common King Snake. In case you’re wondering the why of it, it’s because Lorelai saw one in her animal encyclopedia and requested it. We have done a few snake crafts in the past – printable snake & stocking snake. It was time we did an actual snake species! The snake fits on one printable page, so it’s a bit small. I just told Lorelai that it’s a baby King Snake. =)
