Procedure: Cognitive / My Birthday Candles
My mother made a birthday cake,
She says it is for me.
She put six candles on top
For everyone to see.
When I have a party
This is what I'll do-
I'll make a wish and blow real hard
And hope one wish comes true.
Gross Motor / Have them get in a circle. Place a candle in the middle
of the circle. Start chanting the nursery rhyme Jack Be Nimble. As you
go around the circle substitute each child's name for Jack and have them
jump the candle stick.
Austin be nimble
Austin be quick
Austin jumped over the candlestick
Art / Give each child paint or markers and a half of a piece of
construction paper. Give them a toilet paper roll and some tape.
After they paint their paper let them tape it to the paper roll.
Stuff the roll with tissue paper or crate paper to make a candle.
Observation: Give each child a piece of paper and crayons. Ask them to draw a candle and tell you what they would use it for.
Follow Up: Give each child a pre-baked cup cake, some icing, sprinkles, and candles.
Let them decorate the cupcake. Have them sing:

Happy Good Day We Love You
