About this deal

For all those kiddos excited by our creepy crawly friends, they'll love these minibeast role-play masks. What would a caterpillar and a butterfly have a natter about? Would the butterfly give him some advice on how to perform the ultimate glow-up in nature, perhaps? Greek text of Lucian: Alexander or the False Prophet, with modern Greek translation by A.M. Harmon, 1925 The best part about this craft is the imaginative play that can follow! You can make these by cutting a raisin box and taping on colored paper for the snake’s skin, eyes, teeth, and tongue. Your kids can use their completed crafts as puppets! We love making our own toys using recycled materials. Our wiggly snake friend has been so much loved and played with I had to make another one so the kids could have a snake each. MATERIALS:

Glycon also spelled Glykon ( Ancient Greek: Γλύκων Glýkōn, gen: Γλύκωνος Glýkōnos), was an ancient snake god. He had a large and influential cult within the Roman Empire in the 2nd century, with contemporary satirist Lucian providing the primary literary reference to the deity. Lucian claimed Glycon was created in the mid-2nd century by the Greek prophet Alexander of Abonoteichos. Lucian was ill-disposed toward the cult, calling Alexander a false prophet and accusing the whole enterprise of being a hoax: Glycon himself was supposedly a hand puppet.

Looking for something different

Wolk, Douglas (17 December 2003). "Sidebar: How Alan Moore transformed American comics". Slate. Archived from the original on 2 February 2013 . Retrieved 10 September 2008. Here are more puppet snakes! You can print colored templates from the link below and have your kids glue parts of the paper together to create the 3D head and finger space. Or, you can print a blank template and have your kids color it in themselves! If you load up this plastic snake craft with dried beans, it will produce rattling sounds when you are playing with it. You can make this by threading rope through half pieces of plastic Easter eggs that have had holes drilled into them. Here’s another painting craft. They can trace a snake shape on paper and add a coat of paint. After letting the painted snake dry, they can cut it out, and then add googly eyes and felt pieces for the skin and tongue.

Pictures of Jungle and Rainforest Animals - These photos are a great way to show children the different animals which live in the jungle habitat. You could use them as a discussion prompt - what do think about the animal just from the picture? Threading pasta through pipe cleaners to make this cute snake craft can be good practice for fine motor skills. They can add a shell-shaped pasta for the snakehead, googly eyes, a red felt tongue, and different colors of paint to complete.You can play the original Snake if you want to relive the beautiful simplicity of the early iterations. Popular Snake Games By 160, the worship of Glycon had undoubtedly spread beyond the Aegean. An inscription from Antioch of that date records a slogan, "Glycon protect us from the plague-cloud" that is consistent with the description we have from Lucian. Also in that year the governor of Asia, Publius Mummius Sisenna Rutilianus, declared himself protector of Glycon's oracle. The governor later married Alexander's daughter. According to Lucian, another Roman governor, of Cappadocia, was led by Glycon's oracle to his death in Armenia, and even the Emperor himself was not immune to the cult: Marcus Aurelius sought prophesies from Alexander and his snake god. To begin making your snake, cut a piece of thin cord, approximately 150cm long. Thread the embroidery needle and move it into the middle of the cord. Taking the ends of the cord, thread 4 small plastic beads onto each side and tie knots in the ends to prevent the beads from coming off. Now thread 8 small beads into your needle making a Y shape tongue for the snake.

Begin threading cardboard discs, bottle tops and wooden beads to make the body of your snake. Add a wooden bead on the inside of each bottle tops, this creates a space between the bottle top and the next cardboard disc, allowing your snake to undulate.

Keep up to date with your professional development

Begin by drawing around a bottle top on the cardboard. We cut approximately 25 cardboard discs the same size as the milk bottle tops to make the snake body and 5 smaller cardboard discs for the tail. If you want to make your snake longer, just cut more discs!

It is known that, for at least a hundred years following Alexander's death, a new Glycon cult began to spread its influence along areas adjacent to the Danube, with archaeological finds such as the statue discovered in Tomi (modern day Constanța) being interpreted by some to indicate the presence of a large public cult in the city. [2] Vatamanu Nicolae: "Esculap reincarnat in Glycon, sarpele cu plete", Viața Medicală 1972, No.7 pg 333–335 Here’s a cool snake toy that’s best suited to older learners because they must use a mending needle to thread string through cork pieces. After it’s complete, you can watch them drag around their new pet snake!
