Family Projects
By Amy

Clip to ScrapBook   
Hello!

In the past, we have done "Family Science Night" where all the kindergarteners and their families come to the gym and do hands on science activities together - make ice cream, predict the number of items in a jar,
play with "goop", use their five senses to try to figure out covered items, etc. It's a blast! During the time, tickets are drawn and the children win science related prizes such as stuffed animals, books about bugs, magnetic games, etc.

Another idea - try a "Family Reading Night" where children can share their favorite class book with a family member, check books out together from the

library, listen to a story teller, and also pass out information or hold sessions for the adults about the importance of reading aloud at home with children.

Hope this helps!
Amy
