Circus Week 1

Idea HERE

from Sugar Aunts

I have this Touch and Feel book with an elephant ears!

Tuesday~

Or I will make circles from pool noodles for us to toss our lion/tiger stuffed animals through

Wednesday~ Magnet Sheets from ABC's to ACT's

Thursday~ Play dough with added pieces from LifeOver C’s

Here is the play dough recipe I will use.



Friday~  iPad time, we have the Lego Circus app

Feed the elephant- use tongs or big tweezers to move from one container to another.  The idea from HERE used it as a game which involved running. We won't be doing that but you totally could!

   

Saturday~ Make popcorn in hot air popper.  We will cover our train table with a sheet or cloth. Dump in the popcorn kernels and keep the top part off!   Watch the delight and excitement.  

For snack, we will make clown hats.  I will pipe the frosting and froglet will add the candies.

Idea from HERE

We will also try circus peanuts and cotton candy too!  Stay tuned- because when I was a little froglet myself, I was in the Circus!!!!!!  I have a certificate and of course some photos!!!  There will be action shots on our Facebook page, so be sure to check it out!!!

Printables from:

From abcs to acts

Spring has Sprung

Confession time, again.  When I taught full time in Kindergarten, we did a Jelly Bean Theme... the week after Easter.  So I could get cheap jelly beans lol

Sunday~ I will be adding some plastic Jelly Beans (like plastic eggs) to the bin. 

Monday~

Tuesday~ Peep Tail Colors-

I found this activity and wanted to do something similar. 

Use this sheet I have made for you.

Wednesday~ Jelly Bean Sort from:

or HERE 

or you can pull out the old stand-by jars from every other unit lol

Thursday~ Egg Carton Sort

I was thinking to help younger children, to only use the other part from the caterpillar we painted for the Very Hungry Caterpillar unit.

Or add this idea from

Bunny Bait Recipe here.

Here is the recipe. 

Friday:  

I would add the letters "jelly beans" to the bin along with color words to go along with the colored jelly beans/eggs you have,

Here are some more Jelly Bean Activities


I was also thinking of printing off this sheet and using a jelly bean stamp or using their finger to make little jelly beans inside the J!
