To engage preschool/nursery students in a creative and fun activity that celebrates Father's Day through art.
Start the lesson by gathering the children in a cozy circle. Begin by sharing a short, heartwarming story called "My Special Daddy."
Example Story:
“Once upon a time, there was a little bear named Benny who loved his daddy very much. Benny and his daddy would build forts, play games, and go on adventures. One day, Benny wanted to show his daddy just how much he loved him. So, he decided to make a special surprise! Can you guess what Benny made? Let’s find out together!"
After the story, ask the children open-ended questions:
Encourage children to share their thoughts and experiences. This not only helps them connect emotionally but also enhances their verbal skills by practicing storytelling.
With excitement in your voice, introduce the hands-on art activity that the children will partake in:
"Today, we’re going to make a special surprise for our daddies, just like Benny! We will create a beautiful card to show them how much we care. Are you ready to become little artists?"
Once the cards are completed, gather the children back into the circle. Invite each child to share their artwork if they feel comfortable. You can guide them with prompts like:
Conclude the lesson by reinforcing the idea that showing love can be done in many ways, like through words, art, and actions.
"Just remember, it’s the thought that counts! Your daddies will love these cards because they were made with your love."
By starting with a relatable story and engaging discussion, followed by a thoughtful art project, you create a meaningful learning experience that not only celebrates Father's Day but also fosters creativity and connection! 🎈
