- Make a photo family tree to hang up. There are lots of way to do this, but here is one idea from Preschool Playbook. Click the link for the original post.
- Use a brown crayon to trace your preschooler’s hand and forearm onto a tall piece of paper (making a tree trunk with branches). This is my huge hand as an example. A smaller hand would be much cuter
- Have them color in the tree trunk.
- Use a green crayon to make a leafy tree top.
- Print out pictures of each member of your family and cut out their faces … Include brothers & sisters, mom & dad, grandparents, aunts & uncles and cousins.
- Let the kids glue the pictures onto the tree.
- Ask them to tell you who each person is and write their names next to the pictures.
- Label it “My Family Tree” somewhere on the page.
- Have FRIENDS come over to play!
- Family & friends use kind words.
- Have the kids suggest several kind words as you write them on a paper.
- Give each of the kids a paper bracelet with kind words written on them.
- Invite them to remember to use kind words today! (Thank you. Let's Play! We're Friends. You're Nice!)
