Igloos and Penguins--Pre K Activities


Since we have continued with our winter theme into this week, on Wednesday we learned more about the life cycle of a penguin. We made a book to take home that shows the life cycle--starting out with an egg, the penguin hatching, growing and changing colors, and then becoming the proud parent to another egg. The children really got a kick out of pretending to be a penguin and trying to walk holding an "egg" between their feet.
Today we read the book Mama, Do You Love Me? about an Intuit girl and her mother. It had a lot of new words we have never heard before. After we talked about the book, we made an igloo using blue paper and white labels. This is another great idea I found on the Frugal Family Fun website. It was great exercise for our fingers. We are going to be great writers next year!
