Letter N/Night Preschool Theme

Today we talked about the letter N and Night!

We started today with watching an episode of Blue's Clues called "Pajama Party".  It can be found on Blue's Biggest Stories DVD.  It is a fun episode gives a great overview of why we have night and what we do at night time.  We talked about these things after watching the video and talked about what we do to get ready for bedtime.

Then I had my son cut out and paste the things from this activity sheet onto whether they  are seen during the day sky or night sky.

I made a pajama color matching game.  I found a pajama coloring page and changed the colors on photoshop then printed them off.

Then we did a letter N craft.  I thought this idea was real fun so I went off of that, but did something a little different.  We used origami stars that my husband has folded.

Letter N/Nest Preschool Theme

My home computer is currently needed some repairs so I haven't been able to get onto it to access my preschool plans or Photoshop Elements so I will do what I can on our little, old laptop that is on it's last leg.

Today we did talk about the letter N and did nest printables with it.   

I got out our play doh and my son and I made nests, eggs, and birds.  He had a great time.  We spent over an hour doing that. Sometimes I forget that such simple things can bring such great entertainment.

 He had some really fun color combinations for his eggs and nests like the black and silver ones in the middle.

 Here is another great source filled with nest themed ideas.

We also read some favorite books that have nests and birds in them.  "Are You My Mother?" and "There is a Bird on Your Head".
