Imagine That!: CITIES! BUSY PLACES~FRIENDLY FACES

Week 11:

Cooperative play among the children came into focus today in the activity Roll That Ball. I paired the children up and each pair helped me “lay a sidewalk” (masking tape strips) upon which they rolled a ball back and forth. With preschoolers’ developing awareness of others’ feelings, they are increasingly able to enjoy cooperative play with another child, such as today’s “sidewalk” ball play game. This is an exciting milestone for your preschooler and the Kindermusik environment is one in which his social development will continue to be nurtured, week after week, through his first years in elementary school!
