November ideas

Cookies
Read: Who Took the Cookies from the Cookie Jar by Lass
Story board: Book as prompt. Child participation with character cards.
Craft: Puffy Paint Cookie (No Time for Flash Cards)
  • Need white glue, shaving cream (unscented is best), paper plate, brown paint, paper "chips." and PLENTY of wet paper towels for wiping hands.
  • Before storytime, mix 3/4 cup shaving cream, 1/4 cup glue....then add a little bit of paint until you get desired result.
  • Place bowl in the center of each table. Have children apply "cookie dough" have them wipe hands, then apply "chips"
No Time for Flash Cards


Thanksgiving
Read: Thank you, Thanksgiving by Milgrim and Gooble, Gooble, Crash by Stiegemeyer
Feast: We had a small feast. Turkey lunch-meat roll-ups, and various snacks brought in by parents.
Craft: Turkey Hand with poem (Preschool Daze)
  • Used Microsoft Publisher to recreate the sheet below.
  • Preschool Daze used water color paint, we used poster paint.
  • Set up a paint table. Had parents/caregivers paint child's hands at table and place onto paper.
  • I drew eyes, beak and "gobble"
Preschool Daze
 The children loved getting their hand's painted -- I think it was the parent participation they liked the most.
