Once upon a time, there was a friendly egg named Humpty Dumpty. Humpty loved to sit on a big, tall wall. He liked to watch the world from up high!
One day, while Humpty was sitting on the wall, he lost his balance and fell down! Oh no! It was a big fall, and Humpty needed help.
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men came running to help Humpty. They tried and tried, but they couldn’t put Humpty back together again. Poor Humpty!
Even though Humpty had a big fall, we can learn something important. It’s always good to be careful when we’re up high. And if we ever need help, we can ask our friends and family.
Let’s sing a little song about Humpty Dumpty:
“Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men
Couldn’t put Humpty together again.”
Wasn’t that fun? Remember, just like Humpty, we can always try again and learn from our adventures!
Egg Drop Experiment: Let’s pretend we are helping Humpty Dumpty! Use a raw egg and some materials like cotton balls, paper, or a small box to create a safe landing for Humpty. Drop the egg from a low height and see if it stays safe. Try different materials and heights to see what works best. Talk about why some materials help protect Humpty better than others.
Balance Challenge: Just like Humpty Dumpty, let’s practice our balance! Find a safe place to walk, like a line on the floor or a low curb. Try walking along it without falling off. Can you do it with your eyes closed or while holding something? Discuss why balance is important and how we can improve it.
Helping Hands: Think about a time when you needed help, just like Humpty Dumpty. Draw a picture of who helped you and how they made you feel better. Share your drawing with the class and talk about how asking for help is a good thing. Discuss different ways we can help our friends and family when they need it.
