Snowball, Snowball Cold and Round


This week in Large Group we talked about snowballs.  We pretended to make snowballs with our hands.  We held our pretend snowball up high and down low.  We held our snowball in front of us and behind us.

We played a game called "Snowball, Snowball Cold and Round".  To play this game, we all closed our eyes and Teacher Heidi hid a snowball under one of the colored mittens.  When we opened our eyes, we tapped our knees with our hands while we said...."Snowball, snowball cold and round.  Under which mitten can you be found?"  We each took a turn guessing what color mitten we thought the snowball was hiding under.  

As we played this game, we worked on identifying our colors, answering "wh" questions and using "yes and no" to answer questions.

You can easily play this game at home by cutting out a white circle for a snowball as well as some colored mittens.
