(Thanks Google for images!)
Activity:
Puppet show:Either make your own shadow puppets (get templates here) or create good old fashion hand puppets (see chart below.) Adjust the lighting to get solid shadows along a blank wall or white sheet. Get the whole family involved in creating a story, let your shadows bring your stories to life!

Do:
Shadow Hunt:cut out "animal shadows" out of dark construction paper, place around your home let your children go wild on their shadow hunt!
Splurge:Capture and display your children's "shadows" forever. Purchase a digital profile and frame to display your wee ones shadows proudly. For all the details click HERE!
** From your small infant to the inner child of your wonderful spouse, children of ALL ages enjoy shadow gazing!
May you lurk in the shadows more often!

P.S.
Thought I would share one of my favorite images....I keep this in my office. I love the that their shadows tell a story and reveal the innocent youth of their souls, and of course serves as a reminder that you are never to old to dance! This image makes me happy!
