Takes preparation but why not take full face photos of each child.... print them A5 size and laminate... cut into several pieces. ( Thats the prep) At the activity time. Put all pieces on the table or carpet and have each child complete the picture of themselves. Can encourage lots of talk about hair/skin/eye color. If you have a large group maybe have smaller groups? My group had lots of fun doing this and surprised us with their conversation... e.g " No thats not you because your face is rounder".... "Thats me because I have a feckle (freckle) on my cheek"

I like that Ray! I did a similar thing but because there wasn't many of us, we also took photo's of the toys. We used the digital cameras and the children took the photo's themselves before we put them on the PC and printed them off.
I liked mixing up the faces and having teddies ears, P's mouth, M's eyes and Piggies nose. |
That sounds fun. We,ve planned a "Can you find it?" hunt next. We,re going to take photos of objects and furniture around the room and the garden at odd angles, and close ups and see if they can find them. We will use clip boards and a "tick" chart to encourage mark making along with it..... bit like a treasure hunt....

OOh I forget about indoor treasure hunts, i like that but for the younger ones it will be more obvious ;-) Also while the weather is still damp or cold and windy, it will give my little ones practise ready for our event coming up....
We are planning a similar event for outdoors in the spring. A Clipboard with items pictured on a sheet for the the kiddies to find... I am going to tie ribbons so they can pull them and place into their baskets, we are going to put their photo's on tree's so they can find themselves, we are going to put down teddies to find too. We were thinking of putting a little present down too with their photo's but we haven't thought ahead on this point.... it's all in planning stage. After the hunt we are going to have a teddy bears picnic. |
