ELEPHANT’S DAY
August 17, 2022
Smart Art: Using large paper plates and scissors, make an elephant of your own!
Elephants are herbivores, so we shall explore leaves and plants, using them to paint something lovely! For an extra challenge, hold your arm like an elephant trunk and discover how some elephants love to paint!
(Sensory Table)> Did you know that elephants throw dirt on their backs to keep cool when it’s really hot out? Well, now it’s your turn! Explore dirt on a large cloth on the floor and see how much cooler you feel!
Purpose: These activities will allow children to take healthy risks, develop their scissor skills, and experience how nature and art coincide. They will also get to harness their creativity and learn more about cause and effect.
