Read our version of the popular fairy tale, Jack and the Beanstalk. It is 16 pages but we've kept it light on printer ink requirements. Some of the pictures are in black and white for the kids to colour themselves, if they like. You can also listen to an audio version of the story here, or read the flipbook online here.
On one of his journeys up the beanstalk, Jack rescued a talking gold harp. In fact it was almost his downfall, as it called out to the sleeping giant as Jack ran off with it! Here's a lovely harp craft that you can use to accompany the story - or of course for a music topic if you prefer.
Reading Jack in the Beanstalk? Using a potato to print the leaves is a fun way for younger children to paint their own beanstalk - and make it as tall as they like!
Here are three easy ways to make golden eggs - perhaps to accompany Jack in the Beanstalk, or at Easter.
