Circus clowns

Thursday and the last preschool day of the week.  We were really busy this morning!!  We had blown up balloons and they were in near the fireplace, but the kids spied them the minute they came into the room.  Each one picked a color and we marked them for easy escape at the end of the day.

  I had them rub the balloons on their hair to show that they can stick to the wall with this static electricity.  We punched the balloons into the air to see how many times we could do it before it hit the ground.  I had  a bag of balloons and we separated them by color and then counted them to see how many of each there were.  Then we put them in piles of tens so that they have the tens concept introduced.
