Winter Walk
We would like you to go on a winter walk. Talk about the things you see on your walk.
What signs show you it is winter? What is the weather like? Can you spot ice, bare trees, snow etc?
You could use the scavenger hunt below to help you find different things?
Could you draw things you have seen on your Winter walk or you could take photographs of the things you spot and send them in ?

What shape is his body? What shape is his hat?
Snowman Craft.
Find items around your home that you could use for the shapes of the snowman. Ask an adult to help you draw around these items and cut the shapes out carefully. What shapes have you used? Then using felts, pens, and craft materials can you add the eyes, nose, mouth, hat and buttons to your snowman?
Look at the picture below to help.

With an adult fill up 5 different amounts of water in some glasses. Then with a spoon ask the children to listen to the sounds they make. What do they notice? Do they all make the same sound? Ask your child to talk about the different sounds they make.
