We spent the week preparing for our trip to the pumpkin farm. During circle time we played the game "Pumpkin, pumpkin where is my pumpkin?" I hid pumpkins around the room with letters on them. The kids had to search for a pumpkin and then when we got back together say what letter was on their pumpkin! They loved playing this and wanted to do it over and over! We also learned the rhyme Five Little Pumpkins.
5 Little pumpkins sitting on a gate,
The 1st one said, "Oh my, it's getting late!"
The 2nd one said "There are witches in the air!"
The 3rd one said, "But we don't care!"
The 4th one said, "Lets run and run and run!"
The 5th one said,"I'm ready for some fun!"
WOOO went the wind and out went the light
and the 5 little pumpkins rolled out of sight.
There are hand motions that go to the above rhyme...see if your child can show them to you!!
The kids had fun hearing stories about farms, bringing in things from home that had to relate to farms to share during show and tell, and playing with our little people farms.
We also had fun celebrating Lewis' birthday! On Wednesday he brought in yummy fruit snacks to share with his friends. Thanks Lewis and happy 3rd birthday!
