๐ŸŽถ Good Morning Song

We sing good morning and count together.
Each child gets a number.
We say hello to each friend by name and wave ๐Ÿ‘‹

We reach up high to the sky,
Stretch our arms up tall โ˜€๏ธ

Then we bend down low,
Touch our tiny toes ๐Ÿ‘ฃ
And say: โ€œGood morning, tiny toes!โ€ to ourselves.

โค๏ธ Monday Craft โ€“ Heart Stamping (Valentine Collection)

Monday Craft:
Heart stamps on white paper.

Children use heart-shaped cardboard roll stamps dipped in paint to stamp on white paper. Each child creates a Valentine card.

We will collect the cards all week, adding one each day, and share or take them home on Friday as a Valentine collection.

Focus:

  • Fine motor skills
  • Color exploration
  • Repetition & pattern
  • Valentineโ€™s Day love & sharing

๐ŸŽจ Tuesday Craft โ€“ Foam Coloring on Cardboard

Children explore foam paint by spreading and coloring on cardboard pieces.
They use their hands or simple tools to press, move, and observe colors mixing.

These pieces will become part of our Valentine card collection for the week.

Focus:

Sensory exploration Color mixing Fine motor development Creative expression

Wednesday ๐ŸŒˆCraft โ€“ Dyed Pasta Bracelets

Children explore coloring pasta using food coloring and observe how the colors change and dry.
Once the pasta is ready, they string the pasta onto pipe cleaners to create their own bracelets.

Each bracelet celebrates fine motor work, color play, and creativity, and becomes part of our Valentine week creations.

Thursday Craft:

Children draw free lines and dots with crayons. They paint over the marks with watercolors to explore wax resist and color mixing. The paper is folded and, with help, a heart shape is cut out to explore symmetry.

โค๏ธ Friday Craft โ€“ Heart Character

They create a heart character by sticking the folded paper parts (arms and legs) onto the heart, following simple instructions.
