Cute group activity?

Question

Its for a preschool class of bout 20-21 kids ages 3-5. It has to be able to be done in about 35-40 minutes. Any ideas?

Answer 1

Read a story, such as Brown Bear, Brown Bear, and hand out popsicle puppets (puppets with a picture of the character stapled to the popsicle sticks) and have groups of 10 reenact the story. Not only is this good for teamwork building, it also hits on the standards for early literacy and fine motor skills.

Answer 2

Well, if you're planning to do it in a gymnasium or somewhere wide open, I think you should have relay games that group the kids into fours or fives. Games like sack race, trip to the market, etc. that can help to build teamwork and be fun as well.

If you're indoors, you might try games like Paint me a Picture, Guessing games, riddle games, or give them coloring sheets and tell them to color it and write their ambitions at the back.

Good luck, hope this helps
