Hey there! Let’s go on a fun adventure with Boomer. Boomer is trying to find the way back home, and we can help by remembering how things feel. Are you ready? Let’s go!
Boomer remembers stepping on something that hurt his feet. It was very pointy. Can you guess what it was? Yes, it was little stones! They are small and sharp, and they can be very pointy.
Next, Boomer bounced on something that felt fuzzy and smooth. What could it be? It’s moss! Moss is soft, fuzzy, and a little bouncy. We are getting closer!
Boomer also remembers running over something bumpy. Oops! It was a log. Logs can be bumpy and tricky to walk on. But we found it!
Look! There’s the tree and the swing. We did it! Boomer used his memory of how things feel to find the way back. Isn’t that amazing?
Now, Boomer feels the wind on his face. It feels tickly, like a gentle tickle. Do you like how the wind feels?
Great job helping Boomer! Remember, you can use your senses to explore and find your way, just like Boomer did. Keep having fun and exploring the world around you!
Texture Hunt: Go on a texture hunt around your home or classroom. Find objects that feel pointy, fuzzy, bumpy, or smooth. Can you find something that feels like the stones, moss, or logs Boomer encountered? Share what you find with your friends and describe how each object feels.
Memory Path Game: Create a simple path using different textured materials like bubble wrap, carpet squares, or sandpaper. Blindfold a friend and guide them along the path using only your words to describe the textures they feel. Can they guess what each texture is? Switch roles and let your friend guide you next!
Windy Day Adventure: On a windy day, go outside and feel the wind on your face. Close your eyes and imagine you’re on an adventure like Boomer. What does the wind remind you of? Can you find other things that move with the wind, like leaves or flags? Talk about how the wind feels and what it makes you think of.
Here’s a sanitized version of the provided YouTube transcript:
