windy Kansas

It's KANSAS week!!

The small group activities this week are focused on wind and air

Here is the wind activity - which objects does the wind move?!
That is a fan - a powerful one at that!

You can't see it, but his object flew way up in the air! There were squeals of delight!!

The wind from the fan is pushing the scarf up. Look at the windy hair-do! :)  

BUBBLES!! 





This bubble landed on his hand and didn't pop!



The coolest part of blowing bubbles was to keep blowing air - it actually made the bubbles spin! They would float and land on the towel and not pop right away. This was such a fascinating experiment and this group was the last to go outside because they kept wanting to blow more and more bubbles.

  2. Great small group activities you have shared here in this blog. Kid’s enjoy learning new things and it makes interesting for them if they learn with help of activities. Wind and air activity is such a unique idea for most of kid’s. I would love to share these activities with teachers of Phoenix pre-k, where my kid is going.

  3. We have a lot of wind in Kansas, so the children in our preschool are very familiar with it! :) Thank you for sharing.
