Ocean Theme at Preschool

We are continuing our unit on the ocean in my preschool class.

In our sensory table we had sand and sea shells.


We had an ocean matching game. The kids enjoyed looking at all the different sea creatures.

Then we made our hand print crab pictures.






Then we made sea shell necklaces.

Fun ideas. We'll be doing an ocean/beach study this summer and these activities will be great.

Super Easy Volcanos

Image
I love this project it is so easy and only takes a short amount of prep time. Cheyanne loves making the volcano erupt. We used: plastic plate, plastic cup, aluminium foil, tape, vinegar, baking soda and red food coloring. Tape the bottom of the cup to the center of the plate. Cover with aluminium foil. Cut a hole in the center of the foil and push the edges down in the cup. Spoon in some baking soda. Pour in the vinegar. Watch it erupt.

Fall Toilet Paper Roll Tree

This is a great craft for even young children. I think it turned out so cute. You will need: Red, yellow and orange paint, scissors, toilet paper roll, and green construction paper (or card stock). Cut the green paper into the shape of the tree top. Use fingerprints dipped in the paint as Fall leaves. Cut 2 slits down, across from each other on the toilet paper roll. Slide tree top into those slits.
