FUN FANS
Give each of your children a thin, white paper plate.
Set out crayons, markers, or paint and invite the children
to decorate both sides of their plates any way they wish.
When they have finished, staple or glue a jumbo craft
stick to the back of each plate for a handle. Encourage
the children to use their fans to create breezes.

LITTLE WINDSOCKS
Let your children decorate small cardboard tubes by gluing on
torn pieces of colorful magazine pictures. Help them glue several
long pieces of ribbon or thin strips of crepe paper to one end
of their tubes. At the other end, make a hanger by tying on
string or yarn. Have the children hang their windsocks outdoors
to see which way the wind is blowing.
IS THE WIND BLOWING?
Explain to your children that wind is moving air. Ask:
"Since we can't see air, how can we tell that the
wind is blowing?" Some clues: clouds moving across
the sky, tree branches swaying, wind chimes ringing, paper
blowing down the street. As the children give answers
to the question, write their responses on paper for them
to illustrate later. |
