Little Kitties Tucked in Tight

Last week for Large Group, we reviewed the "k" sound and practiced saying it while sining the song, Happy Birthday Cake and Cookies.  We then played a game where someone was the Mama Cat and we were all baby kitties.  We counted how many kitties we had and then we pretended to sleep and the Mama Cat would wake us up.
We would say together "12 little kitties tucked in so tight.  Sleeping so soundly all through the night.  Til the Mama Cat says wake up right now and up jumped the kitties with a big MEOW."

We played the game where we all jumped up and said "MEOW" and then we changed some things and the Mama Cat got to choose what action the babies were going to do when they woke up.  The little kitties said hooray, stomped, jumped, turned around, waved their arms and touched their toes.  

This activity helped us work on counting skills, using words in phrases, following commands and making choices.
