Activity

Archaeological Dig:
I buried small toys & pieces of things from around the house (matchbox car, broken piece of shovel, some pasta, crayons, etc.) in the sandbox, which I had mapped out with twine into 9 grid boxes. I drew the grid boxes on the kids' graph paper and had them draw a picture of what item they found in each square of the sandbox. I encouraged them to work just like a real archaeologist & dig for objects without moving them and being careful not to break them. They loved this!
Cave Painting (AG 5-6)
We used regular kids' paints on a large paper bag and I just let them have freedom to paint whatever they wanted after looking at some pictures of cave paintings.
