> Groundhog Day Activities Shadow ArtPart of the fun of creating shadows is the funny shapes that appear. When you talk about shadows and the different forms they take when the light is at different angles, you are teaching your children important lessons as well as having some fun! Use this project to discuss what has to happen in order for the groundhog to see his shadow on Groundhog's Day, and talk about the legend of the groundhog seeing his shadow and how that predicts when spring will arrive.
