Today, we’re going to have some fun with our hands! Are you ready? Let’s start by opening and shutting them. Open your hands wide, then close them tight. Now, give a little clap, clap, clap! Great job!
Open your hands again, then shut them. Now, put them in your lap, lap, lap. Can you feel them resting there? Good!
Let’s pretend our hands are little birds. Fly them up and flap them on top of your head, head, head. Now, let them fly down like two little birds. Isn’t that fun?
Now, let’s shake our hands like we’re saying hello to a good friend. Shake, shake, shake! It’s nice to greet friends, isn’t it?
Open your hands again and shut them. Give another clap, clap, clap! Now, put them back in your lap, lap, lap. Let’s make our hands walk, walk, walk right down to our knees, knees, knees. Can you feel them walking?
Lift your hands up high to the sky. Stretch them as far as you can! Now, sway them gently in the breeze, breeze, breeze. It’s like they’re dancing in the wind!
Shake your hands, shake them all around. Now, give a pinky hug, hug, hug. It’s like a tiny hug with your fingers!
Roll your hands, roll them around. Now, let’s show a heart with love, love, love. Can you make a heart shape with your hands? That’s wonderful!
You did an amazing job playing with your hands today! Remember, you can do this fun activity anytime you want. It’s a great way to move and use your imagination!
Hand Shadow Puppets: Find a flashlight or a lamp and turn off the other lights in the room. Use your hands to create different shapes and animals on the wall. Can you make a bird or a dog? Try to tell a story using your hand shadows. What other animals or shapes can you create?
Nature Walk with Hands: Go on a short walk outside with an adult. Use your hands to touch different textures like leaves, tree bark, or grass. How do they feel? Are they rough, smooth, or bumpy? Talk about what you feel and see. Can you find something soft or something hard?
Hand Art Creations: Use paint or crayons to trace your hands on a piece of paper. Once you have the outline, turn your hand shapes into something fun, like a turkey, a fish, or a tree. What other things can you create from your handprints? Share your artwork with the class!
