Ieri abbiamo imparato questa canzoncina/filastrocca: 'Two little dicky birds'- due uccellini. È la versione in inglese di 'Giggino Giggetto' . Ogni tanto mi sembra che la primavera stia per sbocciare. Già sento gli uccellini fuori casa...quindi mi è venuto in mente di usarla in Playgroup.
Qui ho elencato altre idee da fare insieme ai vostri pargoli, in inglese sul tema ' BIRDS'. Buon divertimento!
Yesterday we learnt this nursery rhyme in Playgroup (which is the English version of the Italian Giggino Giggetto). I wanted to start doing something about spring as every now and then it seems to be very spring-like here in Rome. In the garden I can hear lots of birds, probably thanks to our bird feeder we made a couple of weeks ago in Playgroup. I am going to give you 10 other things you could do, based on this nursery rhyme. HAVE FUN!

1) FARE IL RISTORANTE PER GLI UCCELLINI
Make a bird feeder (see photo below)
2) LAVORARE SUL NUMERO 2: TWO SOCKS, SHOES, EYES, LEGS, HANDS etc. Andate a cercare le cose e poi ripete le parole in inglese. Poi potete fare il gioco di 'memory '(con un telo sopra gli oggetti, levate un oggetto mentre il bambino agli occhi chiuso. Poi ad occhi aperti, il bambino deve indovinare cosa manca ecc).
Work on the number two/ a pair: a pair of shoes, socks, trousers etc.
Find the objects and then play memory.
3) FATE UN UCCELLINO CON LA CARTA
Make a paper bird
4) ANDATE A CERCARE UN MURO DELLA CASA-' WALL' E VEDETE COME È FATTO POI POTETE DIPINGERNE UNO CON STAMPI FATTI CON IL LEGO O CON I MATTONCINI.
Go outside and look at the walls of the house. See how walls are made. Then with lego or blocks make print paintings of walls. Help teach your kids how bricks are placed near each other so the wall doesn't fall down.

Go birdwatching with a pair of DYI binoculars made from toilet rolls. Paint, colour or stick stickers on the rolls. Then tape them together. Once they are fixed, punch holes one on each side and tie some string. Hey Presto!
You are ready.

10) COOKING IN ENGLISH
Melt 1/2 cup of butter in a saucepan. Add 1 cup of brown sugar. Boil and stir for one minute. Add a 3 oz. can of chow mein noodles. Put the mixture in 12 paper baking cups in a muffin tin. Use your thumb to press noodles into the nest while still warm. DO NOT BAKE. Give children chocolate eggs to put in their nests.
Queste sono le mie idee. Sicuramente voi ne avete altre...
