Preschool Play Camp: "Splash Party!"

Camp was so much fun today!

• We read these books:

INTO THE A, B, SEA by Deborah Lee Rose
THE POUT-POUT FISH by Deborah Diesen
WAY DOWN DEEP IN THE DEEP BLUE SEA by Jan Peck
I'M THE BIGGEST THING IN THE OCEAN by Kevin Sherry

• We heard songs and rhymes about water during circle time with Ms. Steph. We talked about the different ways we see water: in rain, puddles, snow, ice, ponds, rivers, and the ocean! We talked about all the things we use water for: drinking, washing, keeping cool - and about how plants and animals need water too.
  

• We made our own snack mix from goldfish crackers, gummy sharks, oyster crackers and marshmallow "floaties". We stashed extra snack mix away in our waterproof beach safes.

• The sensory table had colored blocks of ice in it for us to explore. We experimented with melting them using salt, water and our hands - and watched the colors mix together as the blocks melted!

• We ate some juicy watermelon - yum, yum!

• We played a tossing game with the splash balls Ms. Steph made for us!

• We made colorful art with glue, salt and watercolor paints.

• We tried to guess which things would float or sink in water - some things surprised us!

• We got each other really wet during our water play with the bubble tub, spray bottles and splash balls!

~Preschool Play Camps are OVER for the summer~
