THE FIVE SENSES OF SPRING

Introduce the concept of spring with your preschoolers by helping them utilize their five senses.

SEEING – Spend a day outside, observing spring. Look for things such as:

	Buds opening
	Birds returning
	Spring flowers, such as; tulips and daffodils
	Rainbows and rain clouds
	Trees bending or kites flying

HEARING – Have your children listen for the sounds of spring.

	Birds singing
	Wind blowing
	Rain hitting sidewalks or the roof

FEELING – What can they feel when they go outside this time of year

TASTING - This one is a little harder but they may be able to come up with some tastes.

	Easter eggs and candy
	Green eggs and ham

SMELLING – This one is also a little hard, I hope you did better than I did.

	Smell of fresh grass after a rain.
	Smell of manure or fresh plowed fields.
