Today was all kinds of fun.
Literature: How Will We Get to the Beach? and When Summer Comes
Cognitive Game: What's missing?
In How Will We Get to the Beach, Roxane tries various ways to travel, while packing an umbrella, a ball, a book, a turtle, and her baby. Each form of transportation leaves one item out. We recreated the activity with a toy dollhouse baby, cocktail umbrella, ping pong ball, tiny board book, and a toy turtle. I covered the items with a blanket, removed one, and let the children guess what was missing. Great fun every time.
Seashell Sort: the children sorted seashells into groups of small, medium, and large. I pulled out the magnifying glasses for added fun.
What's better than ice cream in summertime? The dramatic play center was set up like an ice cream stand with scoopers, ice cream, sundae toppings, dishes, bananas, menus, etc.
