T is for Tree - Using branches

We did this activity as part of our "Letter of the Week" 

T is for Tree!  

It is also a nice tie in to Earth Day that is coming up in a few days. 

Having fun collecting branches from our yard.

 I cut up some pieces of green foam for the leaves. 

She actually made two of these.  She loved working with the branches.
And YES the branches stayed glued to the paper once it dried! 

Tot Tray Monday - Eath Day Edition!

Fish out the garbage to be recycled

Help save the fish and recycle the garbage!

I put a small magnet on each piece of garbage from our recycling bin.

I have a roll of magnetic tape I purchased from the craft store.  One side is adhesive.

This is a fun way to introduce the importance of putting garbage in its proper place.

She used the magnetic fishing pole from one of our Melissa and Doug puzzles.

If you don't have one, you could make one with a stick, paper towel roll, etc. and some yarn. 

Then add a magnet to the yarn.

I was happy to find an Earth Day themed preschool back from itsy bitsy learners

Place the blue pom poms on the water.

Place the green pom poms on the land.
