Hello, friends! Let’s have some fun with a story about ping pongs. Are you ready? Here we go!
Once upon a time, there were some playful ping pongs. They loved to jump on the sofa! Boing, boing, boing! They were having so much fun.
But oh no! One ping pong fell off the sofa and bumped its head. Ouch! That must have hurt. The doctor said, “No more ping pongs jumping on the sofa!”
Guess what? The ping pongs started jumping on the sofa again! Boing, boing, boing! And then, another one fell off and bumped its head. Oh dear!
The doctor said again, “No more ping pongs jumping on the sofa!”
Can you help count the ping pongs? One little ping pong was left jumping on the sofa. Boing, boing! But then, it fell off and bumped its head too!
Jumping is fun, but we have to be careful. Let’s find safe places to jump and play. Maybe we can jump outside on the grass or on a trampoline with grown-ups watching!
If you want to see more ping pong fun, you can search for ping pong videos on YouTube with a grown-up. Have fun and remember to stay safe!
Ping Pong Counting Game: Gather some ping pong balls and a soft surface like a blanket or a cushion. Ask the children to gently bounce the ping pong balls and count how many times they can make them bounce before they stop. Encourage them to try different surfaces and see how it changes the way the ping pong balls bounce. Discuss why some surfaces might make the ping pongs bounce higher or lower.
Safe Jumping Exploration: Take the children outside to explore safe places to jump. Find a grassy area or a playground with a soft surface. Let them jump and observe how it feels different from jumping on a hard surface. Ask them to describe the differences and talk about why it’s important to choose safe places for jumping.
Story Time Reflection: After reading the story, ask the children to draw a picture of their favorite part. Then, have a discussion about why it’s important to listen to advice, like the doctor’s advice in the story. Encourage them to share times when they listened to advice and how it helped them stay safe.
