This is the way to Help (tune: Mulberry Bush)

Written by Kids World Exploration


This is the way we pick-up our toys

Pick-up our toys

Pick-up our toys

So that we can help and learn

Repeat with these lines and any others that the children came up with

This is the way we wipe up our spills

This is the way we share with our friends

This is the way we take turns

This is the way we stand in line

This is the way we wash hand

This is the way we push in our chair

*Bread Tasting Have the children taste different kinds of bread (wheat, white, blueberry and poppy bread) Graph which one the children liked the best.

*Make Bread Have the children help make different kinds of bread.  Do some bread in the oven and some in a bread machine.  Serve for snack.  Graph which one the children liked the best.

*Oat Clay Make a supply of oat clay.  Have the children create what they want out of the clay and let it air dry over night.  It will turn rock hard.  This is great for those 3-D projects.

Recipe for Oat Clay

3 cups rolled oats (you can use instant or old fashioned)

2  1/3  cups all-purpose flour

1 ½  cups  water

Food coloring optional

Stir together all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl, add more flour if necessary, until the dough forms a lump.  Add flour as needed until it is smooth and not to sticky.

*Egg Counting Set out a supply of plastic eggs and egg cartons.  On the inside top of egg carton place a number of 1-12.  Have the children open up the egg carton find the number and place the right amount of eggs in the carton.
