Friendship Activities for Preschool:
The friendship activities for preschool will provide the children with opportunities to show their love for their friends, and at the same time develop their fine motor skills, and enhance their social skills. Enjoy!
Activity 1:
Creating Friendship T-Shirts for One Another:
Materials needed for this Activity:
- Tracing Paper.
- Stencil Paint and Paint Brush.(Silver or Red, depending on the T-shirt color.)
- Heart Shape Stencil.
- Soft Pencils.
- Paper Square.
- Scissors.
- Tape.
- Glitter, beads, ribbons, and other decoration materials.
- Clear glue.
- T-Shirt.
Procedure:
- Place the T-shirt on a flat surface, and place a piece of paper inside the T-shirt in order to protect the back of the T-shirt.
- Trace the heart shape template onto the middle of the square paper, and cut out the heart shape by folding the paper square in half, and leaving the paper around the heart shape.
- Place the paper onto the T-shirt and when satisfied with the placement, stick the template onto the T-shirt.
- Use the paint and paint brush to paint the heart shape onto the T-shirt.
- When the paint on the T-shirt is dry, remove the stencil.
- Add glitter, beads or ribbon to the heart shape, making use of clear glue, for extra effect.
- Let friends enjoy planning and working together, and exchange the T-shirts as a token of their friendship!
Activity 2: Poem: Tea with me:
The teacher could read the children a story on friendship, or teach the children a poem on friendship, improving their auditory - , oral - and cognitive skills.
Tea with me:
- A little brown bird looked in to see
- What I was spreading on bread for tea.
- He looked so hungry I felt I must
- Eat the middle and leave him the crust.
- The very next day he came again.
- Shivering cold in the pouring rain.
- "I'm hungrier still today," he said.
- So I ate the crusts and gave him the bread.
- Now every day, whatever the weather,
- That sparrow and I have our tea-time together.
- We chirrup and chatter like very old friends
- And I eat the odds up while he eats the ends.
