Lily Pad Hopscotch

This past week my 2-3-year-old students had a blast playing in our simple frog pond, exploring sinking and floating as their hands splashed in the water. Want to see? Check it out on Instagram! Pond Life is a wonderful preschool theme because it explores animals that many of our students see out in their own […]

The frog hop! Roll the dice, jump to the correct lily pad and follow the directions.

Walk Now for Autism Speaks - Kids Korner game. Foam lily pads, plastic cups, kiddie pool, ping-pong balls. Just add water and instant fun for kids.

Lily pads made from two sizes of coffee filters and cupcake liners. Frog stickers top off this project.

We started our pond unit yesterday. We made beautiful water lilies. So beautiful, in fact, that I'm going to make you wait till the end of the post to see them. Ha! I got this idea from Creativity Takes Flight. The kids started by painting a small paper plate green. I put out 3 different shades of green. Then they used dot markers to decorate a small coffee filter. I sprayed them with water and let them dry. Then I folded them in half 3 or 4 times and the kids dipped the ends into paint…

Water lily sound of the week "W" I used coffee filters and had the children use water colors to paint it. I made a lily pad and put them together!

Hopefully they will stay alive and the kiddos can take them home for their moms for Mother's Day next week! We are now learning about frogs! Here are two freebies for you that I am using in my class this week! The first activity is a Fr and Fl Blends Sort Worksheet. Students will sort the eight pictures by the beginning blend sound.
