"There are soooooo many things to do with an empty box, the options are almost endless. We happened to have a huge one and it went from a house, to a cave, to a cave of stars. Its a simple concept, really - but oh so fun!!!
All you need is a box, a paint brush, a knife, and a strand of Christmas lights. I took a paint brush (the size of the ones you get with watercolors), and poked holes in the top of the box. Then I pushed the Christmas lights through, and we had STARS!! We gazed up at the stars together, talking about their colors and about real stars - and even read books in our "cave of stars". It was a wonderful adventure!! - AK"
To add some additional language activities try using;
prepositions:
- in the cave- out of the cave
- look up
- under the stars
Colours:
- blue star
- red star
- green star
Counting:
- how many stars can you see?
verbs:
- crawling
- sitting
- lying down
- hiding
- sleeping
- looking
- wishing
I hope you all have fun with this magical idea
love, Lauren
