Various activities about birds
The topic of birds is very welcome for me. I like birds very much, as well as flowers.
Of course, preparing the theme begins with planning, preparing materials and setting up the children's room - with cages, nests, toy birds, pictures and birdsong in the background.
Getting to know the birds starts with repeating what is known about them - what they are called, what they look like, what their song is and what they do in different seasons.
After such an intense activity, physical activity is necessary. We played a movement game about birds "Strong Bird" and then we continue to work - we found out the names of the parts of the bird's body and how a bird is born.
Then the children put on bird masks and we play a game - each one flies away to his winter home after a song.
Some fly away to warm lands, some even stay here, and some birds hide in the barn.
Most of all, the children enjoyed making a joint nest for the birds.
Throughout the week, knowledge about birds is strengthened - in mathematics, creative activities, various board games, speech.
