What You'll Need:
Cups (Any Kind/Any Amount)
Markers
Pom Pom Balls
Straws
Tape
It's nap time in our house (which is like precious gold!), so we've come up with some stash away games. These can be played any where, at any time. We started this game to practicing counting and using our coordination.
We created a score sheet, and keep Joe Joe's on hand for all participants.
This could be used for a classroom ice breaker, with just counting, or put a piece of paper in each cup which students have to answer questions about themselves or entry level questions about the class.
This next game was their favorite, and was inspired by...lunch. Adding a straw to any meal makes life in general more exciting when you're 4 and 5! We still had our Pom Poms from a project we were doing. Adding a few markers on the ground with tape and having a straw race was pretty fun to watch and participate in.
This could be used for all ages and at table level. Great introduction to matter and weight. Using different light or objects that appear to be light to try and move with air. As always a great ice breaker for classrooms as well.
