Discussion: Do you know what sticky is? What things make you sticky? One child said that when he eats pancakes, his fingers get sticky from the syrup. Another talked about gum in his hair being sticky (sounds like the occurrence made a BIG impression!). We also talked about glue being sticky. Then we sang and danced to Jim Gill's Stick To The Glue *** song. We clapped our hands and pretended they stuck together. Then we stomped our feet until they (just pretend!) stuck to the glue we stomped in. Then we shook hands with our friends until *GASP!* we stuck to our friends! Our last try was hugging (side hugs in preschool) and we stuck to EVERYBODY in Large Group! This was a lot of fun and I'm sure that the kids will want the Sticky Glue song again.
We ended with the Silly Dance Contest (always a favorite).
***Sorry, there is no link to this Jim Gill song.
