Once upon a time, there was a big, round egg named Humpty Dumpty. He loved to sit up high on a wall. Can you imagine sitting on a wall? It must be fun but also a little bit wobbly!
One day, while Humpty was sitting on the wall, he lost his balance and fell down. Oh no! Poor Humpty Dumpty had a big fall. It must have been a surprise!
After Humpty fell, all the king’s horses and all the king’s men came to help him. They tried their best to put Humpty back together again. But guess what? They couldn’t do it!
Even though Humpty Dumpty had a fall, we can learn something important. It’s always good to be careful when we’re up high. And if we ever fall or make a mistake, it’s okay to ask for help!
Let’s pretend to be like Humpty Dumpty! Find a safe spot on the floor and try to balance on one foot. Can you do it without wobbling? It’s fun to practice balance, just like Humpty tried on his wall!
Remember, it’s okay to fall sometimes, as long as we get back up and try again. Have fun and keep learning!
Build a Wall for Humpty: Gather some building blocks or use cardboard boxes to create a small wall. Once your wall is ready, place a toy or an egg-shaped object on top. Carefully try to balance it without letting it fall. What happens if it wobbles? Can you make the wall stronger or more stable? This activity helps you understand balance and stability, just like Humpty Dumpty!
Story Time with a Twist: With a friend or family member, retell the story of Humpty Dumpty but change the ending. What if the king’s helpers found a way to put Humpty back together? Use your imagination and draw a picture of your new ending. Share your story and drawing with others. This activity encourages creativity and problem-solving.
Observation Walk: Go for a walk around your home or school and look for things that are high up, like shelves or trees. Talk about why it’s important to be careful around these high places. Can you find something that helps people stay safe, like a railing or a fence? This activity helps you apply what you’ve learned about safety and balance in real life.
