-fish-
[get some clam shells and face the like this... <). get foam paper and any thing that can be used as eyes. cut the foam into triangles. make two for each child and then a larger one for the tails. glue the fins{the small triangles} to the top and bottom of the shell. put the big triangle on the back for a tail. then glue on the eyes. let the kids decorate them.]
-cRaZy HaTs-
[either have the kids bring in a base ball cap or buy a cheap hat at micheals or and craft store. have a CRAZY HAT DAY!! get markers, glitter, pom poms, stickers anything! The kids get to decorate the hats as crazy as their imagination!. have a crazy hat day and take pictures of the kids being silly!]
-super fly!-
[ make mini kites out of paper. just explore with crafts. have them decorate them with their names and favorite colors. then put strings from the back of them make them colorful. when their done, hang them from the ceiling wiht fishing line so they look like their really flying. i got a kick out of that!]
-memories-
[through out the year and all you games and activities take picture and at the end of the year you'll have a bulletin board of fun!]

-marble paintings [you give them each a bucket with four marbles and splatter paint on the paper then have them roll the marble back and forth through the paint]
-people drawings [get some felt and cut peices out into human body shapes then have them make what they think they "look like"]
-sponges [get a HUGE sheet of paper and have them all line up on both sides and just completely sponge out paint that you splattered on, maybe wait until spring .... then you can do it outside]
