This is the Sunflower” by Lola Schaefer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JP27pEXqBy0

Outdoor Play/Gross Motor (Full Body Movement)

Scrub Them Down

Most toddlers and preschoolers like playing
with water. Make the most of this by giving them a bucket of warm, soapy water
and some sponges, and setting them loose. You can have them wash:
The windows.

·      Any ride-on toys
they have outside.

·      Other washable toys
such as balls, bats, or more.

·       Anything else you can think of as long as it
requires a lot of bending, twisting, and stretching

Sunflowers
Sunflowers start as seeds. Did you know that you can eat sunflower seeds? 



The sunflower seeds are planted into the soil. The seeds are very tiny! 



 After they are watered and get lots of sunshine the sunflowers start to grow. 
Still growing….

Sunflowers can grow to be very tall. Even taller than your Mom & Dad. 





What colors do you see in a sunflower? Yes, yellow & brown! 



Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

Run And Sort
For this game, you will need a variety of objects, and three or four baskets or boxes.
Place all of your objects in a pile, or even better, into a large box.
Set your baskets in a row, several feet from the object pile. The exact distance will depend on how big your child is and how much you want them to run.
Label each basket with a color.
Have your child run to the object pile and choose one item. They will then run back to you and place the item in the basket for the appropriate color.
Repeat until your little one is worn out.

Friday

                                                                    Happy Friday 😊
Today we learn about a frog’s life cycle!
2's Preschool

Story Time / Songs/ Fingerplay

“The Big Wide Mouthed Frog” by Ana Martin Larranaga  
“The Teeny Weeny Tadpole” by Sheridan Cain https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJTNcE1qO6g

Outdoor Play/Gross Motor (Full Body Movement)

*I'm a Basket

Lying on mats on their stomach and bending their knees, get your child to hold on to their ankles and sway from side to side like a basket. This is a great exercise that stretches their muscles, and teaches coordination and balance. Children love these simple gross motor activities for preschoolers.

Ankle Walk

This is a great game for early childhood physical development. Get your child to hold their ankles with their hands and walk.
This is a great way to improve their coordination and directional awareness.

The Frog Life Cycle

1. Frogs start from eggs. 



2.  A frog egg grows into a  tadpole.



3. The tadpole grows into a froglet. 




4. Finally, the froglet grows into an adult frog. No more tail and now the frog has 4 legs. 
          

But I will sing of your strength,
in the morning I will sing of your love;
for you are my fortress,
my refuge in times of trouble.
